thin lizzy - I like that - thanks!
also @ carmalita - appreciate all the info - I don't understand all of it, but it seems to make sense that if you try to eliminate a particular food group altogether it would cause other issues. I'm ok with not getting to what the "books" say I should weigh - I know where my body feels best and operates best...so, if I get my vitamins/mineral levels up PRIOR to surgery, do you think this would be helpful?
Also re: ulcers - is that because of the actual surgery or what people eat/don't eat post-op? and what could people do to prevent this issue, if anything?
