Hi@Diana Prince! I'm feeling great! Doing liquids (clear week 1 postop, full week 2 postop) was a little hard, and I did cheat a little-at a family reunion meeting ate the ham lunchmeat & cheese from inside a hoagie quarter-but didn't have any problems, so I figured no harm-no foul. Went back to work 3/20 on purees, now on soft/reg foods. Only problem at work I've encountered is if I eat too fast, I get palpitations and feel nauseous. Not a feeling I like, so I've been trying to pay attention to my timing. I'm at 183.4lbs now....feeling wonderful! Can't wait for 4/19.....my next dr appointment-looking to get approval to begin working out at the gym (right now, I walk, walk, walk.....I'm a phlebotomist at a children's hospital, so it's been pretty easy to walk between 7750 and 9000 steps daily)

That is awesome !!!! I'm so happy for you!

Not going to lie-AND I KNOW THE LOGICAL REASONS AGAINST IT-had a VERY SMALL amount of soda without any negative effects! Now maybe the reason I didn't have any problems was the way I had it.....I was down to the last of my Crystal Light jug (about 24oz was left); was too lazy too make more, so I added a little orange and ginger ale soda to equal 32oz.......no problems going down, no problems with regurgitating liquids. Now I didn't try to drink 32oz in one sitting-took the better part of the day to complete the jug......but it was good to know that I could ingest soda IF PUSH CAME TO SHOVE
