Always up until midnight or later. Lol. It’s my quiet time. Someone also told me to try baby food jars for puréed foods.

Most people do. I'm a week (8 days, 10 counting before my surgery )post op. So I've been on liquid for the same amount of time. You're going to do fine. Focus more on the life change aspects. Easier said than done ik. But all this coming from a ex food addict. ?❤️❤️❤️

I've been on liquid or clear since 5/31 and it SUCKS. Surgery was 6/7. I'm not going to lie, it does suck. I've eaten a tiny amont of soft foods that are in my next stage coming up next week, but trying not to push it too much. Let me tell you though, that tiny tiny portion of mashed potatoes was fantastic, lol.

For me it was dealing with low blood sugars bc I’m diabetic, but it wasn’t that bad if you take it hour by hour. It will go by quick! You’re almost there. Keep it up.

Hello! I haven’t been on here for a few days, I went back to work and everything was good. Then Tuesday night I had some sharp stabbing pain in my side. Woke up took my multi vitamin and about threw up and then had blood in my poo. I called the doc and got seen. Turns out those multi vitamins need to be taken with something coating your stomach, I have a kidney stone and a hemorrhoid. People, people. Take the stool softeners, drink your water. ??‍♀️ Other than that I’ve been good. I’m no longer crying when I make the family’s food, (I might still lick their food?). I haven’t had a moment to catch up on everyone’s messages but I hope y’all alright!
stay hydrated friends

So I had my surgery on Monday (3 days ago) and I have like no real pain. I totally had planned for this to be worse. Im sure it is different for everyone but have other people felt this way? Like right now i can pretty much do everything I did before the surgery. Im intentionally not lifting anything over 10 pounds but outside of that im still cleaning house and walking miles every day. Yesterday I did it twice. Anyone else have this happen?

Hi everyone thank you for checking on me! It means and has meant the world to me! How is everyone feeling! Question and I know a lot of people might judge so please only non judgmental answers … did anyone start smoking or vaping right after surgery?
