So it has been a week and a day since surgery, and as of the 6  days out appt. with my doctor I am down 17 lbs.  WooHoo!  I am happy with this number, but I am miserable with the full liquid diet.  I am running into a problem with excess acid which is actually making me feel hungry and liquids just don't cut it.  I am hoping that Saturday when I reach the puree stage things will be better.  I am happy with the speed of my recovery thus far, I still have some discomfort, but nothing major, and the more I walk the better I feel.  I am learning what an interesting effect this whole experience has on a person, I have been pretty emotional the past few days.  I feel like I need a vice, I have always had a bad habit  (eating, smoking) to fall back on when I was bored, but now I got nothing....I am not looking to trade addictions, but I need something to help pass the time.
