Still in a quandary? Many questions..

Sep 28, 2009

The weight/wait is the worst thing about pre-op.  I constantly wonder what post-op will bring me.  Everyone says it' different for everyone.  No one is the same and I somewhat understand.  However, in the same instant I still wonder about many things.  What are the first days like and what should I expect?  What will the next week or two be like? and so on..  What foods will I be able to eat -- initially, 1-2 months, 2-3 months, and so on.. Will I ever be able to eat hamburgers, bread, cheesecake, popcorn, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, milk, biscuits n gravy, baked potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, steak, pork loin, ham?  How soon (approximately, ball park, average)?  In moderation or at all?  What are the long-term effects when I'm 70-80? (If I make it that long). Head hunger?
