I'm 4 days out and I feel like I've been a quick healer. No pain the liquids are going great but being on liquids for 11 day (a week before surgery) is killing me! I want to chew! I want actual food. Any advice? Or little foods that won't upset my stomach but will still be enjoyable? lol

You need to stick with the liquids because the nerves in your stomach were cut so you won't feel if anything is damaged by eating food so follow your docs directions. You also don't want your stomach churning to digest food as it could cause problems with the  sutures in your stomach. Just follow directions, they were given for a reason. You'll have plenty of time to eat later.
