Dreaming of mushies....post op day 10

Well, today is post op day 10. I am on full liquid diet until day 14. I cannot wait for the mushies. I am soooooo tired of grits, mashed potatoes (thinned with skim milk) and broth. It's just getting boring and unappetizing- so it makes me want to eat less. This too shall pass though. I have lost 8 pounds since surgery, walk every day 3 times for at least 20 minutes. Inscisions are healing (no infection).....all is good....just really want some fat free refried beans......totally craving that and cottage cheese.....(not on my diet till the mushie stage though). Im still off work until next Thursday- have a job that is very phsically demanding at a hospital. I guess I am also getting a little cabin fever even though i get out most days and do something- go to the park, a museum, a movie, etc. Well, now I am just rambling....Im glad to have this forum and the LB Friends I have made. Here's to the journey ahead. Take care all!!!! talk to you soon. :wink:

Just few more days GF! Get those FF refried beans lined up...some salsa and cheese ontop (I ate that more than anything in the mushies stage). Greek yogurt with SF preserves and healthy harvest applesauce flavors with a little nutmeg or cinnamon ontop... Now I'm just making your mouth drool, sorry. You're doing great!!! -BG
