I had surgery Tuesday morning and have been home since Wednesday afternoon. I have to say this all went much better than all my fears played it out to be. No pain medicine since hospital, just getting my breathing back to normal since when in surgery all of your goods are pushed around a bit. I'm down near 5 pounds and just hope I can keep strong with the liquid diet until the easier days come! (Have to admit.. My stomach is not hungry, my smell is still normal, but my want for flavor food comes and goes only mentally). Stickin with it and feeling much better every day!

Hope you feel better...Get lots of rest..... April

Rose I will definetly be praying for you too.....God luck and much sucess to you..... APRIL

Thank you all. It is an amazing ride - I went to the hospital in tears, and feel so much better today than I could have hoped for. I am not kidding myself that the worst is over - I'm just going to stay optimistic that all will continue to go well. Good luck, Monday, Sharon! I know you'll do great!!

Congratulations. I am glad you are feeling as well as you are. That is promising. Keep walking and keep drinking the water. Hugs, Trish
