I am Back!!!!!

Thanks for the good wishes! I am back and I feel WONDERFUL!!!! Had surgery on Monday, all went very very well. Came home from the hospital last night, and boy was I glad to sleep in my own bed. I have had no pain, no nausea, no problems at all. The gas started yesterday and scared the hell out of me LOL! Then I stood up, the gas escaped & all is well. Thanks again!!!!!!! Pam B.

Welcome back, Rita (wife) just had her 1 week appointment, doc says she can eat most anything that has the consistancy to suck thru a straw. She was getting tired of the water, jello stuff. She had her first taste of mashed potatoes (her favorite) yesturday, she is 10 days a loser and lost 22pds counting the +12 pds she gained in the hospital due to IV fluids. So keep up the good work, you need to do walking too, Rita says she has a metalic taste that started about 3 or 4 days after the operation she was told it's due from her body in ketosis and will go away. Glad to hear you are doing good find a support group they do help. And if you need professonal help don't be scared to get some. Bill Tech-13
