Default I am always amazed

At how different each Dr is in there plan. I have heard some folks do all pureed items and others just have to do trial by error. My Dr is in the middle. He has certain foods you try at certain stages. The first was eggs, cottage cheese, and refried beans. If after a week that goes well then you can do chicken, turkey, fish, string cheese, and some bland soups. Then you can add a few more (can't remember as not there yet) And then set free.

Right now I am struggling like you with eating too fast AND sometimes too much. I made the mistake of doing the "one more bite" won't hurt thing last night and I kept it down but it was not comfortable and would have almost rather it come up but I had re-surgery and I have to be extra cautios not to upset my pouch. Proof some habits are hard to break. I feel discouraged when this happens and worry I won't be able to change my habits but I tell myself have Faith. You will get there.

Congrats on the lose and good luck

Angela
