I am 2 weeks post op today ...my Dr has advised 4 weeks liquid and then 4 weeks purée, this seems excessive compared to everyone elses I've read.
Also struggling to eat enough calories on liquid and my weight stalled for 9 days as think it had gone into starvation mode :/ can't wait to be back to normality of small solid food portions and being able to join a gym !!

What's other peoples 2 weeks post op stories like???

I don’t know why we would have extra incisions. Having trouble sleeping tonight for sure. Still have a lot gas’s but haven’t “located “ my Pouch yet. No full feeling not empty feeling either .



This is my Journey to Joy !

Definitely. This stage is a tiny blip in my life.
My husband told me something very valuable, he said whenever I struggle or feel like I'm getting down during recovery, I should just think of all the things I'll enjoy once slim; fitting in any chair without it cutting off the blood circulation to my legs, wearing a swim suit, wearing no sleeves in hot weather, running the parent race at my kids sports day...being more active over all...fitting on roller coasters or anything in general really.
Today is my first day on my own since surgery so having to do everything myself, my sleep wasn't great either last night but it won't be long eh [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]
