Does regular coffee make going easier then?

When was your surgery Angela? Well done on feeling so good

Hi, Going good here, although the weather is a bit frosty today - had hailstones this afternoon! I too think I'm going to find it difficult to connect he fact that I 'can' eat- ie put things in my mouth and swallow - but thats as far as it goes - it will stick... how do you all cope with this? I have found so far that when I have had a yogurt (i'm only just two weeks out) thatI think I may have eaten it too fast because of this.. any help appreciated. Also - what types of protein shakes/drinks do you all have in the UK? I've just been taking slimfast as I can't seem to find anything else - and its enjoyable.

Hi all, I'm a fellow Scot - ScottishLassie - I live in Aberdeenshire - whereabouts are you? I got sleeved on 11th October. Doing ok so far - still off work and got another week to go. I find sleep and movement so much easier than I did before now - but get sleepy now and then. I figure its just my bodys way of telling me to rest. Today is 14 days out for me - I'm now onto purreed food - know what you mean about feeling like theres a golf ball lodged there - its in my chest and back for me... how long does this last for? How long are you all taking over your meals? How much do you drink in a day? Selena
