Hi ShelyShely! I agree with you and think you are doing the right thing by taking a day off of solid foods. You may have irritated your tummy. I hope you are chew, chew, chewing before you swallow.

I would stay away from coffee and wine though. Coffee will stimulate your appetite and wine well....may add on the pounds you lost and I heard it slows the metabolism too. I hate to sound like a party pooper. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE coffee and wine. I really miss those more than anything else but decided to give them up to help expedite my weight loss.

By the way, I had a bowl of vegtable soup last night and had NO restriction (even though I ate the vegetables) so I am kinda feeling like there is no difference than before surgery. I guess the real test is when I graduate to solids.

Congrats on your 8 pounds, keep up the good work!

Hi Carmen,

I am sending you a private email with questions.

Thanks,
