Started puree 7 days out of surgery I ate too much

[Maryalice717 1]

So, I had pureed food today. I've been doing amazing on my liquid. I feel about 98% right now after surgery no real pain. However I ate a cup of pureed food and it scares me. No pain, no gas, I waited 30second in between bites. I waited 30mins before Water. I feel like a GD failure having ate that much. I had 1/4 cup if pureed food the last two meals. I don't know why i risked eating a full cup. i risked hurting my tummy.

It's been two hours and I feel fine. Not gonna do that again though. My anxiety is thru the roof. As far as liquids I've been doing 8oz an hour to meet my goal. I need to remind myself that my new stomach might not be feeling being stuffed right now. I'm just thankful theres not pain or dumping

To much to quick SLOW DOWN YOU HAVE A JOURNEY NOT A SPRINT

Transition slowly mix up purred with liquids if you feel good on liquids stay mostly there - NO Pain or dumping keep pushing it and you will regret saying that. Read this site it take 4 weeks to transition as a average from liquids to purred to soft foods - Most of us longer, so trust me on this slow down

It's okay, don't beat yourself up, just don't do it again. It's very important to stick to the program. Even now at 1 year out I can't eat a cup of food.

"Transition slowly mix up purred with liquids if you feel good on liquids" I could not agree more ! That's what I plan to do . :)

Truthfully purees are a 'slider food' and none of it sat there very long. You likely didn't do any permanent damage. However I wouldn't do it again.

I feel it was due to my stomach being cut and no feeling. Since it was puree it didnt do damage thank God, but it's one mistake I'll never make again. Today my tummy was super sensitive unlike it ever was stuck to clear liquids only and am feeling better now.

Lesson learned! I stuck to Clear Liquids today just in case I made my healing cuts sore or bothered.

It's more no pain as in I cant feel anything when i drink Water or liquid to give me any ques if my stomach likes this liquid or that. I'm not pushing it trust me besides that flop I have been extremely diligent in making sure I meet my Protein and water goals. I'm not eating anything with sugar ever. Not even during my two week pre liquid diet. I also have never been able to handle meat grease so it's not something I've ever really eaten anyway. Fatty meats kill me.

The couple times I tested the rules I regretted it. I’m just now on solids and up to one shrimp or a little chicken. I’ve had to slow down and I stay liquid and purée at work just in case
