This has been so great!!

I am three weeks post-op and everything is going super. I had lost 21 pounds at my two week check. I did do something stupid that scared the crud out of me. I was fixing chef salads for my family and while cutting up the cucumber, I happened to eat one. I didn't realize I had done it until it was down. I immediately called my doctor. He was on vacation. So, I called a friend who had had the surgery. She said as long as you aren't in pain it should be ok. Well, it's two days later and I'm still alive. Just remember if you do something like that if you have severe pain get to the doctor. I hope everyone is doing well and on the road to a new healthy life.

I'm glad you are OK. Isn't it weird the things we do without thinking. We went out to dinner last night and I had my hubby move all of his goodies out of my reaching distance. We have always shared food and I didn't want to automatically reach for a bite of bread, cheese etc without thinking. I had a wonderful bowl of chicken broth, enjoyed the evening chatting and did just fine. Mary
