Hi guys. Sorry I have been AWOL, I've been laid up a bit. I've had a bad infection and it seems my internal stitches are being a *****. Every time I move, poo, cough , sneeze or sit. It hurts. Car journeys are a problem, I went to my mother in laws today, and had to have the chair laid flat!
I moved onto purée today. Which has so far consisted of a very milky weetabix and an ice lolly lol. Hubby is in the process of mashing up chicken, mash and gravy.
Hope you guys are all ok xxxx

Glad your doing ok, it's very easy to do too much isnt it? You forget you only had major surgery less than 2 weeks ago.
Im looking forward to moving onto the next stage but more so looking forward to when I can just take normal tablets, ive got this one tablet that I have to crush and no matter what you do (put in a yogart, put in a drink etc) it tastes absolutely disgusting and the taste lingers on m tounge for ages afterwards.
I seem to not have too much of a restriction yet as I will have 3 tablespoons and then a forth and I feel like I could eat more than that but stop anyways incase the next spoonful makes me feel sick. I thought id just have 2 spoons and feel so full but that doesnt seem to be the case at the moment.

Glad your doing ok, I had an infection in 2 wounds and it was really painful so I literally feel your pain, the antibiotics do the trick after a few days though.
I'm now 19kgs down, almost 3st

Glad everyone is doing ok and congrats on the weight loss! I have lost 17lbs since my surgery date on 27th May. Sam your so good not weighing yourself yet! I wish I had your willpower, I cant keep off the scales it's really bad of me!
Im not sure about the bath question but they did say to me not to soak the wounds at first but can't remember for how long, if the wounds have closed over id imagine that would be ok but id definitely ask your provider just to be sure.

Hi, in getting in between 400 and 600 calories a day and I'm on normal food now, although I'm still really just having soft stuff. Was naught at the weekend and thought I'd try a fruitella sweet. Within a couple of minutes of swallowing it, I had palpitations and my head was banging. I was also sick a tiny bit. A pretty mild dump I think, but it wasn't pleasant. First time it happened and hopefully the last.
