What Did I Eat Post Op | New #Ostomate Diet | My Hospital Food Requests | #Colectomy

**FYI**

This video is about my experience - it is NOT meant to take the place of medical advice. I am not a medical professional. Call your stoma nurse, Gastroenterologist or surgeons office with any medical questions or for advice. 💜

A stoma is a surgically created part of the intestines that protrudes from the abdominal wall when traditional means of waste exiting is not possible - meaning emptying out from your bottom. I have an Ileostomy - my stoma is on the right, just below my belly button. On some of my videos, you will see It do it’s thing - meaning, output (means I’m still alive). There may be some red fluids visible as well. This does happen often in some of us, on some occasions, and usually is normal. See your stoma nurse if concerns. So, if any of that can make you squeamish, I’m letting you know now 🙂

This particular video is about the foods I ate, in the hospital, and home, following total colectomy (11/8/2017), and once I was cleared for solid foods.

Thanks to Chris in our community for recommending this video!
