On Tuesday I'll be 2 weeks post opt. I'm so ready to get off this liquid diet. I welcome suggestions for the next phase. Soft foods.

First thing ... be prepared for the normal stall at week 2-3 post-op.

Are you on soft or pureed? I advanced to pureed at week 3

Everyone keeps talking about this 2-4 week stall but I just started week 2 and I feel like I already started my stall at the end of week one. Is this common? I am so frustrated.....

During my puree stage and for months afterwards, I at a mixture of refried Beans and pureed turkey hamburger.

Here's the recipe:

Be easy on yourself. Put your scale away for the next month. Your body just had major surgery, give it a break and cut yourself some slack. I know it's hard, I understand the longing to see the payoff for everything you've gone through to have this surgery. But, you just have to be patient. Let your body heal and recover. It's dealing with quite a bit right now - not only the shock of surgery, but the very low calories and little nutrition over the last few weeks. It *will* work, just focus on healing now.
