How much pop corn can I eat at 4 months post op?

When it comes to meals, should I be focusing on the weight of my food, or the volume of it?

I am 3 weeks post op.. I’m starting to worry myself about getting enough protein, nutrients, calories, and water in a day. I’m scared to consume too many calories, but I want to get enough.. what are your alls suggestions? (I’ve been on solid foods for a week)

Is it okay to eat nuts post op? I’ve transitioned to everything else fine, but I didn’t want to try nuts until I heard from you all..

I just got cleared by my surgeon to move on to the soft foods stage.. I’ve picked up a few things from the store, but I’m curious to know your favorites! What have you all eaten during this phase?

I had my surgery on the 9th.. and I am feeling the EXACT. SAME. WAY!

Thank you guys! I am full of questions and worry lol it’s been so helpful to be a part of these forums.

I don’t see any undisclosed sugar in dill pickle juice and I am physically unable to drink enough to affect my electrolytes or sodium. Just wanted a few sips to ease the craving.

It is only in the muscle under the incision my stomach came out of, but it is definitely still sore. Is this normal?

I am craving pickle juice so bad! Is it ok for me to have?

I haven’t slept all night.. I am so excited to get this done, but I have never had surgery, and the unknown is worrying me. I’ve cried on and off the past 24 hours. Is this normal?

January 9th!!

I love Cincinnati!

Message me Kayla!

I got my final approval and surgery date today!! January 9th!!

Not yet.. but I’m so close!! They’re saying it could be any day!

I’m going through Norton. You should message me on here! I’d love to talk with you some more. It’s nice to know someone else that is on the same journey as me.

How exciting! I have made it through nearly 8 steps so far. Luckily, as of 2 days ago ALL of my info (letters, test results, labs, evaluations etc) have been submitted to my insurance company and I am waiting for my final approval. Once I get that, I will have my surgery date! If you don’t mind me asking, which seminar did you attend?
