Oh and I also had a hernia repair with my surgery.

Hi , I'm new too. My surgery was 09/02/15. I understand having to watch everyone else eat around you! I went to a funeral just when I started my purée diet and when we went to the dinner the was all this good food and desserts around me and I'm sitting there with my protein shake and applesauce trying with all my might to be strong. Not to mention everyone around was looking at me wondering why I was eating like that. Then I went to shake up my protein shake and forgot to close the lid and it went flying everywhere! Lol Yes, it's been quite a challenge. Having diarrhea off and on and trying to get in all my medicine five minutes apart with my vitamins and 60 grams of protein and 64 oz of water a day is quite the challenge. Plus, trying to walk when your still hurting. Someone please tell me it gets easier? I've been walking when I can. One day I stepped on the scale and it said I gained three pounds. But I'm back down. I want to be a star with this!! I want to succeed!
