I AM ALWAYS HUNGRY

The surgeon said no gum because if you accidentally swallow it,  he might have to "go get it".  He also said you wouldn't believe the number of post-surgery folks who've said, "I have never once swallowed my gum!!" and the minute they have surgery, swallow their gum.

I keep a drawer full of cheese sticks, Laughing Cow wedges, peanut butter crackers (I can't eat more than four) - in other words - reaching for protein first.  If I've already eaten, I drink some water or decaf tea.  It's usually one or the other.
