    Hi!!! Welcome! This place is the best for support. As for your surgery, we'll all be praying for you on Friday. I just had surgery last Wednesday and went back to work today. The gas is what really bothers you. If you walk, walk, walk and gas ex, you'll get through it. Also, remember, everyday gets better. I have so much energy now and since I do, I sleep well at night and wake up early. Well, good luck and see you around!!!! :-)

    It's very hard. Your body changes after surgery. I used to love protein shakes and now I can't stomach them. I'm also over creamed soup. But, I have to do it, so I'm getting in everything I'm supposed to. Water with MIO and popscicles are my FAVs. I'm not hungry ever, but I can't wait for the next stage when I can actually have food. Until then, I'm counting down. But I love the energy level, can't stop walking...LOL!!!!
