Two Week Follow-Up Appointment

Oct 27, 2010

Well So Far So Good !!!  Had my two week follow-up appointment this morning and seems all is good !!..  Best part is I was advanced to pureed foods..         Am glad to say that I have had no issues with pain or discomfort..   Have not had any episodes of nausea as well...   And last..    No sign of complication or hernia's....

  Starting on the pureed food was quite a change from the soft liquids... and was very welcome..    With the soft liquids..  I never had a moment were I actually had a full feeling..  Actually I never really felt like I had anything in my pouch...     My first pureed meal was Tuna and crackers...       I was not sure how much I would be able to eat...   But My doctor had recommended that I eat 3oz  of protein at least...   I looked at the can of Tuna and seen that it was 5oz.   Hmmm    more than 3oz..  But recalling how easy it was to eat 4oz of soup or pudding etc..  I was curious..      Well..   As I started in on the tuna..    And eating mindfully..   Slow, small bites etc..   I wasnt really feeling full yet.   Well about 25 minutes later and about 2oz in..     I was chewing on a bite and then there it was..   I was FULL..  LOL   I decided I didnt even want to swallow the bite I was chewing..    There couldnt have been any room...   If anything I was almost uncomfortably full..
