I feel really great. Probably about 95% back to normal. Today is my first day of purées and I feel brand new eating actual food!

Weirdly, my hunger never went away. It's not as intense as it used to be and of course is satisfied with a bite or two instead of a whole meal. Every day it gets easier and easier. You're still on full liquids? That's the hardest part.

Hi Bonniegold...I may have spoken too soon on feeling better on my 2nd week. I've been on an emotional rollercoaster from Sunday to Thursday. I think it was more noticeable after getting off the liquid pain med I was on. I'm feeling better today but my Dr and I realized I would not be able to return to work on Monday which will start my 3rd week post-op. He wants to allow more time for me to heal completely. Unfortunately, I wasn't one to bounce right back after major surgery. I know it will get better as time goes on.

Thank you!

I feel better than I have yet, today. This recovery has definitely been rough!
