I'm back! I'm 3 days post op. It went well. The pain is almost nonexisistant. I'm a bit tired but I'm walking and walking until I can't walk anymore. Today's my first day of soft foods, and so far I've had grits, yogurt with added whey protein, pudding, water, water, and two popscicles. No nausea and vomiting so far so good. Thanks for your support and kind words. When I get a chance, I will thank you one by one. I'm on the losing side. I've lost 13 pounds so far. Yippeee.
