Hi all, I'm just wondering if anyone of you are still sore? I am on the side where they took the stomach out. I hope the pain goes away soon.also what are you eating? I have 2 sugar free puddings a day 2 protein shakes and sometimes broth or cream soup and a sugar free Popsicle and I sip water but have to have ice in it for some reason.

Sounds good great job. I start soft on Wednesday and I made a crockpot of chili with ground turkey

Tried soft food for the first time today and vomited. Was just an egg but upset my stomach. Other foods like jello broth etc have been ok. I was done on May 1st so I thought I wasn't moving too fast. Help I would like to move towards some regular food!

I am feeling good. Ive lost 10 poubds from my pre-op weight plus the 8 or so i gained during surgery. I'm back at work (ER nurse) and haven't had any problems except today I was a little queasy at work early in the day. I transition to "puréed" foods tomorrow, so I cheated and started tonight with an little bit of taco meat and refrained beans. I couldn't eat much, and even spit a little out after chewing it forever. I was burpy afterwards but an hour later felt good enough for a few more sips of water. My meals have been primarily protein shakes (Premier), and I don't mind them at all. I've thrown in a little tomato soup, pudding and jello but overall I'm just not a fan of those things or any other "full liquid". So tomorrow I will start experimenting and see what happens.

I started at 325 before 9 day liquid diet I lost 7 lbs then had surgery may 1st and in two weeks lost 18lbs. I feel great. I just started on puréed and the first I ate was tuna fish I had 3 bites then felt sick but the next day I was able to eat cottage cheese and in the evening a scrambled egg. I have to eat slow and stop as soon as I'm full. Which is usually a couple bites.
