How was your first weeks on liquids? I've read so many different experiences. I hope it went good for you...I am trying to mentally prepare myself for when I have my surgery, I'm counting down...

I'm sure I could share some when I get home...I made a great chicken salad...and another dish with beans and ground turkey.

I'm also going to share the name of this cookbook I was given by my insurance...GREAT recipies for all stages...

Isn't it great?? Now I can plug my air fryer back in and eat....so nice to just chew, chew, chew chicken instead of puree!!!

I was just talking to my coworker about this.... can we use an air fryer?

First week was decent because I literally didn’t want or desire anything. The gas trapped made it undesirable you know but once I started walking it was easier

I actually didn’t have the purée phase which makes this transition huge! But I’m excited to get all this great stuff from you!

That's great! The first week seems to be a little rough for most based on what I've read but you have passed that and on your way to the finish line...YES!! Can't wait to join you real soon.
