alcoholic beverages
I've read that ppl do that. So you just pour vodka over ice and mix in a little crystal light powder? Sorry I just want to get it right for when I'm able to drink lol. I love vodka and pomegranate.

Stuck on whats actually pureed
I love cottage cheese alone and with fruit (I know fruit is not allowed yet) but I bet with sf torani syrup would taste pretty good. Thanks for all these ideas.

Stuck on whats actually pureed
Ok so I know mashed potatoes, retried beans hummus, yogurt, pudding, puréed soups is considered puréed. I start puréed Saturday and I want to go grocery shopping for a few things but I don't know what to buy. What did everyone eat during there puréed stage? Is this all what we could eat my nuts list didn't specify. Thank in advance =)

How bad is the nausea?
I was hoping I didn't have nausea or gas after lol. I did get the patch behind my ear like 10min before surgery and had no nausea into like 6hrs after surgery from a scale of 1-10 it was like a 5 keep a pillow on your belly that helps. I would gag every time the nausea would kick in and the pillow helped with comfort and they gave me some nausea pills while I was there, that helped a lot. By the 3rd day when I came home I had no nausea. I was given prescription/pills for nausea and I have not had to take them (10days post op) which is good because I read they cause headaches. Good luck if you do have nausea I hope it's gone by the time you go home.

I'm 10 days post op and I have not missed food not one bit not even on Christmas when I saw my moms delicious tamales I was fine. Today we have BBQ (brisket, chicken & beef fajitas, ribs, steaks) all the sides that go to that and different Desserts my favorites which is potato salad and charro Beans. My mom is very sweet she made some sf pudding so I could have something with chocolate.
