Well, I am two weeks post op and doing great. I am very tired of Yogurt, applesauce, and cream soups, but other than that I am great. I see my surgeon tomorrow for my two week check up and I am looking forward to moving on to stage three. I have lost 13 pounds in two weeks. I am not sure how that compares to others but I'm pretty happy with it. The surg went very well and every one was very nice to me. Kaiser runs a very smooth program. Every thing was explained clearly and every one treated me with the greatest of respect. I was very pleased. My R&Y was done lap. and they removed my gall bladder. After surg it kind of felt like all my internal organs were moved around and put back. I could feel things bumping into eachother. It was very strange. Now though everything feels back to normal except my eating of course. I can't wait to start seeing a real change. I am mourning food some though. I miss strange things. I have been craving a TOGO's sandwich. I have never craved one of those in my life. I just keep thinking that soon I will be able to eat more foods. Cari
