Food and Supplements

Started with my blended liquid diet today..........cream soups, low cal/SF/FF yogurt, double milks, etc. and so far so good.  I made double milk pudding to have for my snacks just because I felt like I wanted something to "eat".  I discovered that the 3 ounces of food I am eating at my meals is quite a bit, but I also know that Amy said not to pu**** until I finish 3 ounces so I didn't.  Just ate slowly and stopped when full and it went fine.  I'm going to have to learn to like the double milk taste though because it's different than just skim milk.

The supplements went down like a charm.  No problems at all with any of them, but then most are small and the other ones are chewable so easy to get down.  That "handy dandy'" four compartment pill box sure did come in handy so I didn't forget to take them.  :-)

So far so good at eight days post-surgery and just thought I'd post and let you all know I continue to do well.  It is just amazing how good I feel after having this surgery!  Just unbelievable!

Thank you all for being here for me and keep posting your thoughts and concerns on here.  I love hearing from everyone!
