I wish I was over the "hump". I feel confident as long as I've been eating stuff that I've had for awhile. But I keep putting off trying "new" stuff. I guess there is always tomorrow. Logically I...

Hi all, I've been trying to eat better but I'm still not at 100% with solid food. I've tried the suggestions others made of scrambled eggs and those worked ok. I saw my GI dr and she said I can eat...
With an endoscopy they put you out and you don't feel anything, at least that's how it was for me. Then when I saw my GI dr afterward they gave me a lab report and summary of what they found on the...
I haven't had a wrap or any kind of surgery (besides my endoscopy about a month ago). I'm glad to know I can just jump in to having regular food. I thought I might have to work up to it or something....
It's been almost 2 months now and I've gone from liquid food to just soft food, like mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, and applesauce. I've been eating those three things for almost 3 weeks now. I am...
Doing better every day - had pumpkin pie, squash, and mashed potatoes this weekend for Thanksgiving. Yesterday I had cottage cheese and this morning I had a few bites of French toast and scrambled...

Thanks Kitt, I'm checking that site out now and will keep your suggestions in mind!...
Still haven't tried any solid food yet, a little afraid it will get caught. I know I need to eat more than I have been. I hate being afraid. Does anyone have any advice on how to get started and how...
It has been a little more than a month that I've been on omeprazole for my reflux which caused a piece of chicken to get caught while swallowing on Sept 11, and I am ready to start trying solid food...
Going to try more solid food tomorrow since it's been a month since I started taking the omeprazole - Im going to try a fried egg and chew it really well, I hope it goes down ok. I've been having...

Had some mashed potatoes with water and milk and butter tonight, they went down great! I took really small bites and let them sit in my mouth to melt a little before I swallowed them. I might try...
I'm going to try some mashed potatoes, I am just so afraid of getting something stuck in my throat again like I did two weeks ago. I haven't heard of chewing things to a liquid before, I hope to try...
I am just so tired of having only liquids, I have been on them for 3 & 1/2 weeks now and lost 25 lbs. Applesauce, chicken broth, beef broth, yogurt and milkshakes are getting so boring. I'm getting...
Thanks, that info helps a lot!...
I didn't even know that I had it, I just had heartburn after I drank pop. Right now I feel fine and have no heartburn but I don't know how to tell when I'm healed enough to try solid food without...
I had a follow up appointment with my GI doctor today and got blood tested for h pylori, those results won't be back for a few days. I found out the reason food was getting stuck when I swallow is...
