Your scared we are human that is what we do. But I think judging from all the post op people here that we will make it. My surgeon only takes people that will be a good statistic for him.....you will be fine. Your dr doesn't want to lose anyone he is who your trusting. Have faith and know we are cheering you on.

Never Feel Hungry Post Surgery
I have read they cut nerves in our stomach so in the beginning we won't feel hungry but it will come back. I would really try to get your protein in anyway you can. If the ground beef works great. We were told by our NUT 120g of protein a day. How much ground beef would you need to eat? Syntax nectar is a f ruity type protein you can put in stuff maybe try some samples of that. What about broth or soup with unjury flavor free protein? Good luck!
