Yippee! Finally! So happy for you -- I know this was causing a lot of anxiety. Now you can let yourself get excited. Congratulations on this new chapter in your life beginning.

Thank you Bandista yes lots and lots of anxiety but now i am sooo excited..

Thanks everyone for the support, I am a week post op on mushy foods. I don't see my doctor until 6 weeks out. Is it normal to be hungry because I don't get my first fill until January 16, 2014. I have read that people feel stuck but I have not experienced this. I don't eat more than a 1/2 cup at one setting but I don't have had any problems. I have been eating popsicles, muscle milk Protein shakes, broth, creamy Soups, crystal light, yogurt, cottage cheese, etc. Also, Once I start regular foods will I be able to eat sandwiches. I am so craving bread and rice. I don't want to eat Protein Shakes forever. When did everyone start working out. I am thinking about starting to go back to the gym doing just the elliptical or the treadmill for 45 minutes.

Congrats! I'm excited and nervous for you as well as for myself. How many of you can tell me how long you were all out from work?

I am still waiting on a date did my pre op labs last week and they came back normal now just waiting on the call from the hospital to give me my date... I HATE WAITING...
