Mary:
My surgery was one week after yours, and I can't even THINK about eating that much food. I haven't vomited once since the surgery.
One thing - my surgeon has not cleared me to eat corn, rice, or doughy breads. I can understand the rice and doughy breads, but not the corn (but I'm still staying away from it).
I agree with Denise - has your surgeon had any post-op nutrition meetings with you? I've had two so far. If not, you may want to follow up with them to see where THEY think you should be with your eating. Only your surgeon knows how big your pouch is.
Good luck..........
