Not sure what on earth possessed me but today I decided to try some turkey chili and pick out the pieces of turkey. I'm only a week post-op and supposed to be on liquids only so I definitely should NOT have done that. What surprises me most is that it went down without any trouble and I felt fine for the most part. That was about 2 hrs ago and now I actually feel somewhat sick to my stomach. Not sure if its the chili or my guilt :( I hope I didn't do any damage and I will definitely not do that again. I'm supposed to be on straight liquids for another week before I even get to the mushies..

    My doc cleared me for food after 7 days. He explained that if your body heals well and the swelling goes down it is ok to eat. He told me to "try" very small pieces of food and if its ok than its best to get your body acclamated to the band. If it hurts or something bad happens you would want to go back to liquids. But if things feel ok.... its ok to eat. CHEW, SLOW and SMALL
