1 month surgiversay!
Aug 11, 2014
So today is 1 month from my surgery date. YAY!!!!
Hubby and I were out and about getting errands done and he was so hungry, it was dinner time and I thought... I can have scrambled eggs (which is allowed on my puréed).
We went to Eat N' Park, I ordered an eat smart smile, no oil or butter, knowing I was only eating a 3rd of the scrambled egg substitute and giving hubby the turkey sausage and dry 6 grain toast and fruit.
I separated my 1/4 cup sized serving of eggs, ate slowly, chewed and chewed.. No water.. Felt great! I high fived my hubby at our first successful food outing after surgery.
An hour later.. I took a drink of water and... Foamies and that super stuffed, food stuck feeling. For the next 4 hours, hiccups, foaming and stuck feeling.
I ate my papaya enzymes, but they took way longer than normal to help..
So... It was not a successful outing after all. No more eggs for me.
Maybe next time... After soft foods... Just waiting for it to get easier..
