Guest guest Posted August 3, 2000 Report Share Posted August 3, 2000 --- The consistency of grits is fine but the digestion of grits might get stuck, it can be similiar to rice. I wouldnt mess with grits as of yet........ Potatoes, baked, mashed, even tuna I had at 2 .3 weeks.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2000 Report Share Posted August 3, 2000 Holly, I'm only 10 day post op but I can tell you this much, if you drink to fast it does cause your poor little tummy to have an ache for a few minutes anyway! You learn real quick how much your tummy can take!
