I did this too with a cheeseburger. I just wanted to taste the flavor and I spit it out. Didn't consider it bad or a problem at the time but can understand how it could be. I also don't plan on that being a habit. At all.

Glad things are going well for you. It is kind of weird I still have to remind myself that I've already done it now!! It's really weird!!!!
Good luck and speedy recovery!!

My dr told me I could do Cream of Wheat but I'd much rather do grits!!! I think I may try them slowly here in the next few days. Next week I plan to do some quiches! I'm getting excited just thinking about it!!!!! I know once we can move to that next food level we'll feel much much better!!!!

Confession: I just ate an egg!!!! Like Tammy said chewed it up extra good and it went down no problem!!!!!

I should dust off my Wii Fit as well. I've been wanting the Zumba game for a while, may have to get it.
And yes!!!! I would give my right arm to have an egg right now!!!!!! I have about 5 more days before I can technically have one according to the manual they gave. Once the 30th comes I'll definitely be having eggs!!!!

I was sleeved on 4.15.14 so I'm 9 days post op! The second day was the hardest for me as my pain pump and I weren't getting along. I was having a bit of a reaction (flushed & nauseous) but once we figured that out it got better. I stayed 2 nights and then came home.
Since being home, I feel great, no major complaints. Pain has been bearable. The only things I'm having a hard time with is getting in as much liquid as possible and getting in Protein. I'm doing worse on Protein than I am liquids. So I've got to figure that out.
I do feel I'm able to "eat" and drink more fluids than I was last week but I can't stand the shakes and stuff so I'm trying to figure out how to get in the protein. Any tips are welcomed!!! There isn't much protein in broth!!!! I'm able to do full liquids and thin purées now so I've gotten some unflavored protein and will try that out.
I went up about 9 lbs due to fluids but based on the scale the morning I arrived I am down 11.6 lbs and based on the scale when I came home (w additional fluids) I am down 20.6 lbs!!!

Oh good! Glad to hear. I've been wondering when it will happen. They sent me home with meds that'll help nausea and movement.

Yay!!!! Me too! I had my surgery yesterday as well. I'm doing quite well, but I am having gas issues and a bit of reflux issues. Can't wait to drink something either. At that point I'll be able to use the Gas X strips.
Nurse just brought me some meds for nausea. She reminded me that day two may be the worse and that's probably why my issues started flaring up during the night bc yesterday was a piece of cake.
Excited about what's ahead for us!!

God early morning from the pro-op room! All went fantastic from beginning to current. It's 1:30 am and can't sleep; I was extremely sedated and it has not worn off yet. My conversations with family were nothing but lullaby songs because I kept falling asleep.
Well sleever buddies, how are y'all holding up?

I posted some recipes on another thread called Pre op diet... If u can't find them there let me know and I'll post them here too ???? good luck
