Topic: RE: 9 days out and missing food
I had surgery on the 5th and I have developed a great sense of smell also. I started taking advantage of it though. I never used to cook. I HATED IT!!! Now, I have been cooking everyday and enjoying the smells of the food and enjoy watching my family eat healthy new things that taste good and SMELL GOOD!!! I know this might be weird but it works for me :) I'm going to go bake now that my whole family is down for a nap! Good Luck!!!

Oh and I planned my meals in advance already. I know What I'm eating for the 1st couple days of the pureed stage So I have something to look forward to.

Topic: 9 days out and missing food
I must be healing too fast because I miss eating! I drink and drink and drink but the smell of food drives me crazy and I seem to developed a great sense of smell since the surgery. I'm practically a hound dog. I'm trying to be light hearted about it but today is a mental struggle.

I was on clear liquids two days prior to surgery and three days after. I will start pureed foods on the 19th for two weeks. Soft chopped for two weeks. Then normal eating. 

I have not had any nausea at all but I'm worried about the pureed stage. Anyone else in this boat or now in the pureed stage?

Topic: RE: Oct 27th is my date!
So yea, I went to my Nutrition & Exercise class at Synergy Bariatrics today. Fun! Nice to meet two other ladies who are getting surgery the same day. Fun and easy to talk to. Will have to get their email addresses so we can keep in touch on our new WLS journey. Tomorrow is day 1 of the pre-op liver reduction diet... so tonight is the last supper LOL

Anyone else got an update who's going in on the 27th?

Topic: RE: RNY on October 22nd....anyone else?
All the best to you.
I have met so many people who have been successful at this surgery and the advice \i hear the most is " follow the rules and use your support systems" ... I'm going to take this advice when I have my surgery on Oct 27th.
I wanna lose along with you.... I'm so excited myself.
I feel like I'm getting a second chance at life!
