Hey all! I'm new around these parts

My surgery is scheduled for January 7th and I was wondering if there are any others schedule for the big day in January 2013 ...?

I slimed for the first time yesterday. I ate my normal breakfast (3 turkey sausage links) but I was thirsty so I had a gulp of ice tea 15 minutes later. Didn't bode well.

When can you use a straw again?

Hey...I am 2 weeks postop and I used a straw today and nothing happened bad or indifferent. Today I started soft foods, I ate boiled shrimp and other shrimp dishes and everything went good. But I must say, I couldn't eat much of it

Im one week postop I drank out of a straw 2 days ago not thinking and I instantly threw up I dont know if it was the straw ir I drank to fast and took down to much liquid

Tommorow is my one week post op appt cant wait to switch to the next stage im sick of liquids

It's *really* easy to take in too much liquid at one go using a straw, and boy it's not a pleasant feeling at all. If you keep it in your mind to take small sips you'll be ok, but that one time you forget, yowza!

Straws let in air when you use them. My Dr told me no more straws period.

So did you increase your calories then drop back down when you started losing again?? I'm so frustrated!

No I still eat 1000-1200 and continue to lose.
