I have 6 days to go and I agree, I'm hungry ! It's a strange kind of hunger, though. No huge rolling hunger pangs, just the knowledge of not being able to munch on something is playing with my head. So I drink something, then feel better.
My husband just asked me when I can have solid food again... I did the calculation of my particular doctors (I have found out that they are all different) food timeline. I start pureed on week 5-6 after surgery, then "normal" food or whatever my pouch will approve on weeks 7-8. So what hit me right between the eyes is that today is April 13 and I will again eat "normal" food on or about June 10th. My goodness.
Here's to our new bodies !!

Try to drink an Isopure from GNC. It is a clear protein drink. That did the job for me! Goodluck!

Topic: RE: I had my surgery today
I've kept myself moving and distracted, so I think that helps. I am a little more sore today, but nothing worse than a strained muscle. I think I'm just lucky.

I think that moving around really helps. I am a little more sore than yesterday, but it's still managable.
