I am exactly a week post op today. Tomorrow morning I have my very first follow up visit from surgery. I know eveeything is going really well, but I am nervous as can be about being moved to the pureed food stage of the diet. I am not sure why but it is freaking me out just thinking about it. My appointment is first thing in the morning.

There is nothing to be nervous about. You got this. Take it slow and follow the plan given to you.

I'm seeing this really late, and I'm sure you've probably already taken the "plunge", so to speak. But I felt nervous during each stage progression. I had fears of things not sitting right, dumping, getting stuck, ect. But I tried to listen to my body as best as I could during eating time. I never ate distracted in the beginning. Remember, if you feel any discomfort or nausea, its ok to take a break and try again later. Also, there will be foods that don't agree with you at your current stage. This doesn't mean you wont be able to have those things again.

Things do get better. Best of luck to you! And I hope you enjoy the stages as well. I know that soft foods was a blessing when it came :)

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
