I had surgery Thursday 4/11 and returned Tuesday 4/23...I can honestly say that I can down probably anything if I tried so yes I don't have that much restriction which I don't know is a good or bad thing but the funny part is I know to stop when food gets stuck in my throat!!! I can't eat neatly as much as I was eating before surgery. I think I am hitting a stall no weight lost since last Monday so I have to change my diet a bit at this time, more protein more water and less carbs!! They do 1 leak test while in surgery and then a barium swallow the day after surgery and then one more leak test before you leave the hospital!!!
