My First Post OP Appt:
Sep 16, 2010
Today was my first appt. after surgeryTheir records have me down 23 lbs since surgery. Who can complain!!! They remove my staples. Didn't hurt at all :) They replaced them with some type of strip band aid...they said they would fall off on their own Then we went downstairs to nutrionist. For the next 2 weeks I will be on Full liquids, rather then the clear liquids Ive been on since before surgery, I was :( that I am not to puree diet yet but I am thankful for any new add ons.... Broth was so blah.... The item I am excited about that she said I could have is All juices as long as they are less then 15 g of sugar. Even orange juice once a day :) Just no pulp in any I am also now allowed all the sugar free pudding one girl could want ....LOL even coffee con leche made decafinated with skim milk and splenda!!!! not to mention my protein shakes. I got them in vanilla and can use any sugar free syrup she showed me a site that sells every flavor under the sun!!! i can also use hersheys sugar free chocolate syrup and strawberry..... Soups are still pretty blah to me cause they have to be strained. I am not allowed any pieces or chunks of anything..not even pulp in the juices.....and low fat Soups allowed cream of chicken , mushroom,broccoli or tomato i am also allowed baby food fruits as long as they are low sugar she said to start with apple, banana I can also now have sugar free gum So still no real food but a big enough chance to make me happy. I have been cleared for walking slow on my treadmill....now they watch for blood clots... and I have to wait 6 weeks for my pool :( Big Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
But all and all
I am a very happy camper
