make the transition a smooth one avoid fried foods sugars try one thing at a time log your food 3 meals 2 snack lot's of Water and Protein #1 plane your meals eat protein first low fat and no sugar I eat Diabete diet most of the time go on line there are great meals I eat lot's of fish,chicken,sea food chew chew eat very slowly no grazing very small bites..

I am two months post-op and I eat whatever I choose but in very small amounts. It's important to focus on getting the Protein and Water though. When I first started on solid foods I went very slowly and carefully, just trying a little bit at a time to see how it tasted and felt. It has been kind of fun in a way, like rediscovering food all over again. I don't eat much bread but have eaten small amount of rice and Pasta without any problem. I have eaten some dessert items a few times too. Sometimes I've found intensely sweet things make me feel queasy, which is probably a good thing since I'm a big sugar junkie. Just take it slow and listen to your new tiny tummy tell you when it's full.
