Doctor confirms food getting stuck...
I still have a lot of problem with food getting stuck, and am still on soft foods after 3 months. My doc said not to worry, and keep eating small amounts of soft foods. Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever get to "real" food again.

Eliza,
It's so nice to hear that someone else has/had the same issues. My sister is 6 months post op and has never had any issues that I've been having. So she just keeps telling me to eat slower and chew, chew! DUH! That's what I've been doing. It's so frustrating. I can't wait until the time comes when I can eat (however so little) and not have it bother me. I'm not complaining about he amount of food 1-2 Tablespoons, but I'm complaining about it just feeling okay after eating. Yesterday was great - no problems. So now I'm worried I'll have a bad day today. I'm anxious for this phase to be over. By the way the ONLY thing I can eat without it bothering me is yogurt and I'm so tired of YOGURT!
