Yesterday was my 10th day post-op and I can honestly say that I am eating great. Yesterday morning I ate 1/8 cup oatmeal with a 1/4 cup mashed bannana in it and 2 packets of Stevia. Went down wonderfully with no discomfort. Lunch time, I ate a 4oz airfried chicken breast with lemon pepper. Dinner time, I ate 4oz Salmon with old Bay sprinkled on it and a splash of lemon with 2oz green beans. Everything is going well. I just skipped the puree stage and chew to a pulp. Can't feel my incisions anymore. No discomfort from the surgery at all. That's my update. I really hoping that everyone else is doing great as well.

Great. Kind of the same process here. Can you fill out your stats, so people can watch your progress.

I've been trying to figure out how. Under my avatar I see the area, but when I go to put my info in it won't allow me to. Is there another way?

At the right top of the page click on your user name, then under account settings you will be able to edit and add.

So jelly! I'm on three weeks liquid, three weeks puree, THEN I can start having actual food! My surgeon is VERY strict about following that timeline.

I didn't advance to a regular diet until day 43 or 6 weeks. I think it really made a difference!

Glad things are going well for you. I'm surprised you can eat that much, but if it works for you, that's great.

I put in what it would allow. But my stats are blank and for some reason it won't let me change them.

Top right your name with the down arrow --> Surgery information (I'd suggest Surgery type and date), then save at the bottom. Then on the left pick the "Progress" section and enter height, current weight, goal weight, starting weight, and set "keep my weight private" to "off". Then save at the bottom.

Thank you, had to fill it out my tablet. Wouldn't work on my phone.

No problem, and congrats on your progress!

Whoa SSS, you're doing great! Now you just need a weight ticker across the bottom to really see your hard work paying off!

I'm trying to maintain the muscle mass, so protein is really my main priority.
