Thank you! Yep, half an egg and I started belching so I stopped. I had the other half for dinner. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012I had a regular egg Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012So I ate my first food today. I had a scrambled egg. After I ate half the egg I started to belch so I stopped eating. Is that the sign to stop? I know we don't get full feelings yet. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012Bc you are a day behind me. My full liquids stop today...the 18th. I can eat soft foods now, well in the morning I will. I did 2 full weeks post op of liquids. So your 2 weeks should be up Wed the 19th. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012Wow! You look great! Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012I never had a pureed stage. 1st 2 weeks was liquid only. Now I'm on soft solids. But I know I can have lunch meat. I am allowed to chew food now. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012Question... when can we eat chicken? I am off liquids and was wondering if baked chicken would be ok as long as I chewed it super good. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012No tubes or drains for me. I never had them. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012I pulled mine out myself. No way my husband could stomach that. Felt weird but not painful. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012I had the Q pump but surely he will give you hydrocodone as well. All the Q does is numb you, which is totally helpful but not enough. Mine lasted 3 days before I pulled it out. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012So I'm losing weight again! In fact I just lost 4 lbs overnight! Was stuck at 226 a few days ago but now I'm 220. Total weight loss including preop is 20 lbs. I'm very happy! Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012I have had past surgeries. I had lapband in 06 and c section in 09 and hysterectomy 8 weeks prior to rny. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012I did not have a binder and I was completely fine without one. My doctor does not use them. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012Hw 240 Dos 230 Today 224, 10 days post op Total 16 lbs loss Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012Awesome weight loss Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012Lol. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012Yes I have glue. When I saw him wed I told him about itching but it wasn't as severe then. He said to use benadryl cream. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012It gets better. After the first week you should have improvement. I'm 10 days post op and pain is minimal. Lisa :-) surgery date: Dec. 4th, 2012
