Almost 5 weeks post op

Hey everyone just wanted to check in and say HI... I am doing good and everything is going good.... I am still in the stage 3 pureed diet.... I have this week and next then I guess I can start eating real food.... I had the RNY back on May 25 and I just wanted to ask anyone that has had it done.... Do you always have to chew your food to mush... Or does it get to where you can eat small bits thats not mush.... If anyone can help thanks..... Thanks So Much Christie Calvin

Hi Christie, You will want to always chew your food as fine as you can. This is something that is still hard for me to do, but I have paid the price for not doing so as well. Not chewing the food good results in the food becoming stuck and then pain as well as alot of times the food coming back up. It is not pleasant at all. So I would say, chew , chew , and chew. Hope this helps.
