Guest guest Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 Well done Notan, I had quite a giggle with your turkey message. We have a lot of Americans living here in Alice Springs. Even though we don't celebrate Thanksgiving and Halloween in Australia, we do with our American friends here. Happy Thanks Giving to all.

I am glad you enjoyed it. ....Even though we don't celebrate Thanksgiving and Halloween in Australia, we do with our American friends here. I was told to be on a soft diet for two weeks, and I decided that Thursday was it, two weeks from the surgery even if not two weeks from my release. Everything was swallowed just fine. I did eat a lot less than normal and had no desire for pie, (very strange for me), because it would have been too much for the now small stomach. It seems we all are told different things about what to eat and for how long after surgery. Perhaps this is just a difference in surgeons or perhaps it also is because some of us will need a different diet. Mine was easy to remember, soft, no bread, no meat, and nothing crunchy. I was also warned specifically to stay away from things like corn chips which have sharp edges because until the myotomy heals it is very thin and could be perforated by something sharp. I don't think I had heard that before. notan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
