    How are you doing with liquids? I'm about a week in front of you. Hope you're doing good getting back into the swing of things.

    Congrats on your surgery! This is a great place to get information and support for those days that you feel like you have made a mistake. at the end of week 4 right now and I will say that eating gets easier but my body lets me know if I eat too fast or too much.

    I am about 6 days Post Op now... and at home..
    So far ive been ok.. the drain site where they pulled the drain out is a little red.. but im keeping it clean and butterfly bandage together..
    Other than that the biggest difference for me is swallowing my liquids.. if i take too big of a drink it feels like indigestion going down..
    do you feel that too? I think its getting better, or I am getting better at just sipping..
    Hope you are feeling well!
