Ooops, grainy mustard?

So I am 3 weeks post sleeve yesterday and today for lunch I brought some roast beef to roll up with mustard. Without thinking, I used my usual grainy/seedy dijon mustard, you know the kind that is basically ALL seeds? I ate about 1/2 a tsp before I remembered I wasn't supposed to be eating seeds!

What are the chances this will get stuck/cause a problem?

More than likely you'll be fine, Just want to avoid getting anything stuck in your staple line this soon after surgery. Pay attention to things the rest of the day and if things start to hurt or seem to get more swollen, reach out to your surgeon/doctors office.

You can eat roast beef 3 weeks post-op? Wow, good for you! I couldn't even do eggs at that point.

@Orchids&Dragons yep! I started "soft" foods this week after purees last week. It's paper thin slices of rare roast, very tender and goes down great! I was able to add soft scrambled eggs in puree phase and had no problems there either.

I hate to say it, but I am one of those people that hasn't had a single problem adding new foods, I just have to learn new portions with each new texture. With the new soft foods it's a HARD stop at 2.5 ounces.

Yes, that sounds like it would be difficult. I'm the opposite, other than liquids/purees, I'm lucky to get to an ounce and a half. My protein minimum is 75g and it's a good day if I can get half from real foods. The rest is all supplements.
