    hey,

    I am exactly a week post op from having lower jaw surgery with a movement of 9.5mm.

    My eating habits have included chicken noodle soup, fish, rice-a-roni, cut-up french fries, and macncheese. I'm just wondering if I am on track compared to others who had similar surgeries?

    Thanks

    Quinn

    You're probably farther ahead than most people. Eating mac and cheese and anything cut up at a week is fantastic. It took me personally 3-4 weeks to get anywhere near that.
