  1. With me 3 is the magic number. 3 liquids, 3 puree's, and 3 soft. I'm on stage 2 and pureeing everything in site. I've also allowed cottage cheese because that is so soft and easy to chew. In stage 3 I have to stay away from mostly white foods and breads , can have potatos, and gassy foods ( broccoli, cauliflower, brsl sprouts) unless they don't irritate me after trying them once.


  2. I am almost 3weeks out and I can already see a huge difference. I wonder why I waited so long to agree to this. For two years my doc recommended surgery but I was stubborn and wanted to do it on my own. I lost 63 lbs. But then was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Since my surgery dec27 I have not had one flare up! And I see friends who had bypass having all these issues with food and dumping. I have not experienced one problem with keeping anything down. This has been the best decision of my life. I just shake my head sometimes as to why I didn't do this sooner.


  3. I stayed two nights. It will depend on the doctor. I wish I could have stayed longer! You really dont get alot of rest the first night with the nurses checking on you every few hrs. I came home dec. 29. My daughter was dropped off the 30th. And I got no help from family. I was up making her meals, getting her clothes. I over did it but I had too.


  4. I'm 15 days out and 3 of my 4 incisions are dried and scabed over but one one is kinda soft with blood. Doctor saw yesterday and said looked great but today the glue has lifted and now its leaking thin watery blood. Doctor said its ok unless it becomes inflamed. Anyone experience anything like this?


  5. What flavors do you like to freeze?

    Anyones that sound good! I would recommend not using the ones that have fruit in the bottom and are premixed. I also started saving the empty cups cuz I want to mix yogurt/pudding with creamcheese and putting frozen friut in first then the ccheese and pudding and make my own! I am still in liquids for a few days so I will let u know how it goes.
