Although my tiny belly was so full from liquids today the sweet smell of chicken frying awakened my taste buds I fell asleeo and dreamed of chewing and swallowing it....it was horrible to wake uo wit the taste of watered down apple juice on my tongue but thank god im not hungry just miss chewing. ..and liquid pain meds are gross oh my goodness it takes me 4 sios to get it down and I have to brace myself for each sip bc my belly does some sort of rumble and then I burp smh... this is gonna be one hell of a journey BUT everyone is right every day is better than the day before I feel good 70oz of fluid down and 15g of protein im on my way yaaaay

One day at a time is all it takes...I am 4 weeks post op and things are going well...you will be just fine. Keep up the great work!
