What exactly happens to your pouch....

When you are newly post op and not careful. I have read a lot of posts where people say, be careful because your pouch is still healing. I'm just wondering what happens if your not careful? The reason I'm asking is because i am 2 weeks post op and my surgeon said go ahead and try regular foods, just chew well and if you get sick don't eat it again for a while. Well a lot of people say they don't eat solids until 4 weeks out. So can it cause a leak, or just irritate your pouch? Everything I eat goes down just fine and I never push it to the point where I get full. Anyway, thank you! Amber
