I went to the doctor for my one week postop today. I weighed in and so far I've lost 13 pounds since last Monday. She said I could start puréed foods and I'll be on that stage for about a month. I got the Steri-Strips off my incisions but I was allergic to them so now I'm liberally applying Benadryl cream. My first puréed meal was beans and the canned green beans with garlic and peppers in them. I got some foamies afterwards but other than that I just felt really full. Feels good to be off the chicken broth stage.
