thank you for the update, Brenda. I am so pleased you are doing better. No nausea ?? you can eat whenever you want I.e. you can eat at dinner time and then lay down and not feel nauseous? if you recall - right now I stop eating solids at 2 p.m - full 8 hours before I go to sleep. I still don't feel "comfortable" 8 hours later - but I am able to fall asleep laying on my stomach. Semi-reclined, on either side or on my back I get aching and nausea - laying on right side is THE WORST... I wake up during the night and its only after about 2 a.m. that I can lay in any position - so 12 hours post last meal - and its a small soft meal - around 1 cup of food.... I do have liquids and purees (usually stewed apples or pears pureed) later than 2 a.m. - up until about 6 p.m. - but very small amounts .... Anxious to hear if you get back to 'normal" Prior to your procedure - what were you eating??

I am still eating as I was beforehand. Until the 3 months are over and I see the Gastroenterologist, I will stay on soft foods.
I eat canned baby carrots, potatoes and French style green beans (no bean), sweet potatoes, beets, tuna, rainbow trout, any flakey fish grilled;
Nothing fried. I eat a lot of creamy peanut butter and Nutella, canned apples (no sins)
White bread. Cooked chicken - no fried! I am not having pain or nausea.
After I see what happens next, I will post again!
I hope you feel better.
This cleaning out and opening my Pyloric valve has definitely helped. He said it will continue to open more over the next 2 months.
