Topic: How long did your left side pain last?
I had surgery on 12/11, so just alittle over 3 weeks out. Last weekend I had my first situation with getting food stuck, two days later it happened again. Both times I know the food was too dry and/or I ate too fast. It was hell until I spit up, but that wretching really took it's tole on my muscles I think. I was sick yesterday with diarhea and dry heaves and today I'm even more sore. I'm not sure if it's sore or pain, lots of times I'd call it pain. I'm just wondering when it will go away. How are you guys doing pain wise?

Topic: RE: Am I the only regretfull one?
And I forgot to tell you...I GAINED 17 pounds from surgery. I had my first post-op visit today, and my Dr. said that he would have been Ok if I hadn't lost a pound. The weight WILL come off..but agin, it just takes time! Good luck..and I hope your feeling a little better today!
Topic: RE: Am I the only regretfull one?
We are only 11 days out today. I am still VERY weak, sore and tender. I still don't sleep very well at night and I don't feel I am getting enough nutrition. But We are ONLY 11 days out! If we were to have had this surgery 30 years ago...we wouldn't even be home yet. We are home...but our bodies don't care! All it cares about is healing from what it just went through...you will be Ok...but it WILL take time! I will be thinking about you, and please don't be afraid to write...even if it takes me awhile to respond..I will!

Topic: RE: How are all of my December 2008 friends doing?
Happy New Year Rob and all my fellow December surgeries. I am doing good. I lost 30 pounds but went into a stall so I decided not to weigh myself again until 1/4 which will be my 1 month post op. I'll let you know then. I was making myself crazy worrying why I was stalled. Now I am just relaxing.
Congratulations on your great weight loss. Take care

Topic: RE: How long before you can exercise again??
I had my surgery on 12/4. I went back on 12/16 and they said I should continue walking and some light weights (5 pounds) 2 - 3 times a week. I have been sticking to this and I am hoping after my 6 week date to get the ok to do weights and crunches every day.

Topic: salmon recipe
I tried this the other day and it came out really good:
Pour toppings (see below) over salmon then Bake salmon for 15min at 350 degrees or until done.
Toppings: (Pureed all these ingredients:) low fat mayo, egg beaters, onions garlic and mushrooms
This came out really good and soft..good for the soft food stage!!
