Hey all.. i am on Day 7... i started Protein shakes yesterday and feel SO much better since i had one.. took me all day to sip one. I'm actually dying for pureed food though... i need variety and think i can get better Protein in. My dr. (dr. kelly) says day 22 for purees... so its a ways out... i'm hoping maybe he lets me go a little earlier Then again.. i'm a little confused by Cece's nutrition plan.. i wish it was a little more specific. maybe i'll ask in a different thread.
I've lost 23 lbs so far including pre op and feel pretty great.

i'm day 8.. and just read of a poor girl who had a leak at day 5... i saw my swallow test and all was good.. no symptoms etc.. but what can cause a leak after you are all "ok" by the swallow test.. the plan i'm on is allowing some minor soft foods (yogurt, thin oatmeal.. runny things) and purees starting next week ... but now i'm getting nervous... what causes them/

I'm with you. My goal size is 6 . I'd be happy at 8 but secretly I really want to be a 6

I'm leaving Tuesday. And going solo. And I'd be very upset if I ( paying patient) wasn't attended to as well as I could have been during recovery because others there ( non patients) were wanting resources. I think it was poor judgement of the patient with the enterouge and probably Omar's desire to make everyone happy ( and inability to say no) that was the problem .
