I had a total colectomy and perm ileostomy on June 28th....think it is too early to eat a pork chop, even if I chew thoroughly?

Yes it is too early...keep to what works for you.  I did not even try pork till last month, and as long as it is not fatty at all I can eat a small amount.   I keep with turkey and chicken seems to work well for me.  I am just now slowly adding fruit to my diet...yummm, the watermellon was so good, but the other mellons kind of give me a bit of gas, so I can only eat a few bites and then I quit.  Its all trial and error but your kind of fresh out of surgery so say on a strict diet.  So are you feeling well since the surgery?

I just had a partial blockage from bbq pork chops. I "however" did NOT chew it properly and I knew it..hehehe It just tasted sooooo good. I got my ileostomy at the end of may.

I was pretty much eating everything three weeks out of my surgery when I had my temp ileostomy. Again, I am stupid, and did it anyway, but I had no problems because I chewed very well. I would resist the urge and just take it slow and give your body a chance. That was the best subject line too, "Pork Chops" haha.

OK...think I will pass on the pork chops tonight, hubby can eat both of them. I love grilled cheese. In the hospital they had grilled cheese made with mozzarella and square cheese. I had never tasted that before....never with mozzarella...it was DELICIOUS!!! Guess I will make some mushy carrots too. So great to have an appetite isn't it?

Good call!! Just give yourself a little time and you'll be able to enjoy them again:)!!

i don't have an ileo, but you could try a blender (the NINJA is preferred!) zap the pork chop into bits and you'll enjoy it as well! [just have to imagine it as a whole pork chop]
