Post op visit

Had my 6 wk post op visit today.  Everything was A-OK!  I lost 30 lbs so I was pleased with that. I dont have to go back to the do****il January. Jenny

WOOHOO!  Good for you, Jenny!! Beth

That is great... I am happy for you!!!

Way to go Jenny!

By-the-way, how's it going on regular food?  I get to start on Thanksgiving day!  I must say I'm a bit nervous.

Blessings,

I havent had a bit of problem on regular food.  The day I started eating 3 oz, I felt like I just ate a smorgasboard, but the next day I was ok.  Just be careful on your meats. I had a ground sirloin hamburger pattie cooked on the George Foreman and out of habit, took a bite, chewed it up and then took another bite without swallowing the first bite and it got stuck in my esophagus (not in my pouch), my mouth go****ery like I was going to vomit, but I just took a few sips of water to get it down.  So now, I am much more careful. 

If you eat turkey on Thanksgiving add some chicken broth and kind of chop it up (thats what I am going to do)   Good luck!  It was so much better to start eating food.

 

You said everything I wanted to hear!  I'm so glad it's going well for you.  I plan to eat some turkey but I'm going to sma**** up with some turkey broth.   I'm wondering about mayonnaise though.  Do you know if we can have it?  I was going to make some egg salad for my lunches next week. Thanks again! Jacqui

I have been eating FF miracle whip in my tuna salad, and it hasnt bothered me.  I think it says condiments are ok, just to make sure they are the healthier choice. 

Great!  Thanks so much! Jacqui

Way to gooooooooo!!!!!!  congrats on the weight loss!
