This is my first post on OH and I am proud to announce I am now a loser! I am two weeks out from surgery today (surgery on 7/10/13) and I am down 14 lbs!! In addition to being down 14 lbs, I am able to move to soft foods today!!!

For my first soft food meal, I had 1/2 cup of refried beans mixed with 1/4 cup of greek yogurt, a tiny bit of taco seasoning, and a little unflavored protein powder.....Yum!  I ended up eating it for two meals!

Also, does anyone have any guidance on the amount of sodium we should be intaking?

 

Lastly, how do I upload a profile picture? Every time I try it tells me file is to big! Suggestions?

Talk to you later, losers!

No idea on the sodium but I know it would be pretty tough to overdo it based on what you'll be eating for the next several months. 

As for the picture, I had to go in and resize mine way down so it would upload.  It needs to be tiny!

Congrats on the weight loss and getting to move to soft foods.  I'm only 6 days out and still on clear liquids so I'm jealous.  I have a question for you.  Kinda gross but when do the bowel movements start up again.  Haven't had one yet.  I'm assuming it's because I'm only doing liquids??  Saw my Dr today and forgot to ask that question.

The pain killers can cause constipation.... did your doctor give you a laxative?
