Hello! I am 9 days Post-Op from Ohio

Hello there, my name is Shelley and I live in Ohio. I had my surgery on the 31st of August and I am really looking forward to talking to others to find out what works and what don't out there.

I have found that the full liquid is NOT working for me. I end up hungry in about a hour after eating/drinking my meal. SO... I tried some pureed food for my next meal and that stayed with me longer and I had no backlash.... I did cheat a lil and tried some more solid food last night (spaghetti) and that was a No-No , my tummy was NOT HAPPY.. so I am back to pureed foods.

What I am eating now is things like, steamed veggies, chicken, tuna, pork loin and ground beef (mashed/blended). Mashed regular/sweet potatoes, cream Soups, cottage cheese (best friend), yogurt, smoothies, fresh fruit (mashed/blended), and the list goes on. I just make sure everything is well chewed, mashed, or blended.

What I would like it more ideas for dinner choices, as I do not want to run my house like a restaurant, cause I still have a child at home.

one more thing.. I have a hard time getting in ALL my liquids.. anyone else have this problem?

That is all.. I know I have a long introduction.. but I can be long winded.. lol

Shelley
