Lesson of the week....

1. Take pea size bites
2. Chew the hell out of your food
3. Don't over cook your food
4. invest in small utinsils

Last night was the worst ever. I thought I had indegestion but my food was stuck, hung whatever..My biggest mistake was the judgement of food I put on my fork. It scared the crap out of me! Lesson learned the hard way.

That is one feeling you will get use to and will need to try to avoid as much as you can by chewing, chewing, chewing.    My Becca gets stuck so much it's ridiculous and it's usually on chicken, no matter how moist.

You right, I feel Becca pain I just ate some chicken very, very little bites and guess what it just happened again.. I'm going to try again later but with some baked salmon.

Welcome back and hope you're having a speedy recovery honey. The NUT released me to start a soft meat diet this week and I've been struggling ever since..Its definitely  a learning process..you keep up with the liquids you're going to need it.

Is dumping another name for sugar? I seen my friend do that and it doesn't look fun at all.

Dumping relates to rny surgries but sugar is a major cause of dumping.  Don't relax yet, other surgery types can react badly to sugar as well.  I don't know the cause but I've witnessed it and I've heard the stories.

Thanks girl, but a lesson learned is better than not knowing at all. I'm the type of person that has to learn from experience, once I realize the sh*t to hot I want touch it again.
