  1. So far surgery is a success.  I'm on liquids 'clear' and 'full' until day 17, then I start blending all my food...haha, yay? I've tried very small pieces of a few soft solid foods. It takes about 2 minutes for everything to register that it is being rejected.. Then I throw it up about 15 times, rather unpleasant. So suffice to say, it has been easy to stick to liquids like I'm supposed to :)  Thick cream soups kind of have the safe effect. Protein shakes however, are going down, slowly, but going down none the less. Down 12lbs since surgery 8 days ago. Even received compliments, the "your face looks skinnier" compliment. It's odd but I'll take it ;)

      Congrats on the surgery! Just stick with it, focus on meeting getting your fluids in and before you know it you'll be advanced to the next food stage. It gets much easier as you go along. Hang in there!

      It does it better. I was scared to desth to overfill my pouch. I ate minimally and did more liquid. And tons of water. I ended up having to get propel and some pedialite. Also I went to whole foods and got a really good probiotic for when you do get to more solid foods.
