I just wanted to thank everyone for all of your posts. I really appreciate all of the advice. I took all of your suggestions to heart and promptly called my dr's. office first thing that morning. Of course it took them til' the middle of the afternoon to get back to me. Anyway, after pleading my case with the nurse practitioner, first I was told no I needed to wait until I'm seen for my first week post op appt. I can't begin to tell you how quickly Niagra started falling, but after a little more talking the nurse cleared me to move cream Soups and thicker Protein Drinks (joy oh joy)! I am so happy to report that I had some of the best blended cream of mushroom Soup. It was like a warm and fuzzy blanket. My husband said he was all to happy to get it for me because he really didn't know who the crazy, hungry, out of her mind woman he saw me turned into. Again, I know this journey is going to be hard but one I'm willing to take and take with all of you wonderful people. You all ROCK!

Well I am happy to say that surgery went well, thanks everyone for all of your support. I now just need to deal with gas pain and trying to keep up the schedule of liquids.

Maybe it's because I actually haven't had actual food in almost 48 hours or that my actual surgery is tomorrow, but I'm freaking out. I know that this is a great thing I am doing for my health but is this the best way to go? Will the surgery go well? will there be any issues???? sorry i'm babbling can anyone tell me other than what I read about the procedure is there anything else I should know or watch out for? Help!
