Thank you for the advice. That sounds like a good plan.

Melissa4444 reacted to The Greater Fool in Dinner party on soft foods
I was in such a position early on. I had had a couple bad experiences eating in public, so it was not something I was interested in repeating. Still not, really, but that's neither here nor there. I played with the food on the plate, whatever it was, and if anyone asked said "It's just not agreeing with me. It tastes great, but I just can't manage it" and shrugged.
Then ate what I could when I got home.
Of course, it helped that I'm just a delight and a conversationalist extraordinaire at parties (huh) so that everyone was just intoxicated with my patter.
Good luck,
Tek

Melissa4444 got a reaction from summerseeker in Lower Bowel Obstruction
I had my surgery on June 8th and exactly a week later I was in the ER because I couldn’t stop throwing up. I just spent five days in the hospital and was released today. Turns out, I had a lower bowel obstruction which is a terrible experience to have to go through. Anyway, now I’m scared to even drink anything because it’s not totally clear yet and I don’t know how I’m supposed to know when it is cleared. Also, I am expecting to go to the bathroom and have a huge bowel movement and that’s how I know it’s cleared except if I haven’t eaten for the past six days, is it even possible to poop? For the past 3 days, I’ve been on a clear liquid diet. I’m afraid to even start having Protein Shakes and a full liquid diet again because I don’t want it to build up and I get sick again. So is it possible to poop (big) without eating if I had a bowel obstruction? Anyone else go through this?
