Surgery Date - 10/2/12

How are you feeling? Have you lost any weight?

Surgery date 10/18, but started liquid diet since 10/14. Since then: 9 lbs down! SO jazzed!!!

After reading your post I tried a small amount of chicken w/gravy ...so far so good. I am so scared of over-filling my pouch.

Hey Rhonda, my doctor said just make sure it's finely chopped, and moist and eat slow. Glad you tried it.

Oooohhhhh baby when I tell you I'm tired of jello' date=' broth and I know I have to continue after surgery.

It take time to be able to get the liquids in. I'm much 3 weeks out and just this week am i able to get the liquid and protein in.

I did after I got home bend wrong and split the incision in my belly button a little. It has stabbed over but has this happened to anyone else?

That's great news. I go Friday and am hoping to be able to start purée. I am tolerating everything well except my chewable Calcium which I just need to find a new one.

My surgeon says take Tums for your calcium.

Anne I was told to wait 6wks before I could take calcium.

I think all surgeons are different cuz my Dr had me start my Vitamins at my first week post op visit he had me start the calcium, multi vit, vitD, & B12 but I told him I was gonna start the Biotin also cuz I jus grew my hair out & im not tryna loose it.

Yeah they all are different, cause even when I went for my two week check up yesterday, she reminded me to continue taking everything else, just not the calcium until 6 wks. Now if wish I would of asked why only not that vitamin. Anyway we all have to do what were told, cause they know whats best for us.
