I am 7 weeks out and started drinking Hazelnut Decaf about two weeks before surgery and still LOVE it. I don't know that I really need to go back to regularly coffee. I was told it was OK to have caffeine in VERY small amounts.

My surgery was yesterday morning. I did lose weight prior to going into surgery so that was a plus. Surgery went well according to the Dr. Got out of the hospital around 2 pm today. I feel like I hurt more now that I am home then when I was there. Gas is going down very very slowly. I have listened to all of the things they told me to do. One of which I am struggling with today. I have had less than 20 oz of Water, a small sugar free Jello, about 4 oz of the chicken broth they gave me in the hospital and about 8 oz so far of a Protein Drink. I am drinking little sips and have been awake most of today. I am trying really hard to get their total of 64 oz of Fluid in me and 70 oz of protien but day 1 is no where near what I am supposed to do. It is slow going because it hurts if I go fast. Do I worry? Will it get better? I even mentioned to the Dr. That I thought I was hungry but she said that it was "mental" hunger.
