Happy Anniversary KS4!
Happy Anniversary, Kendra. Congratulations on your success. You are truly an inspiration! I can't thank you enough for your advice and support.
So today I am 10 days post op. I am feeling sooo much better. I went for my 1 week follow up appointment on Thursday only to learn that my surgeon was stuck in surgery. However, they weighed me and I have lost 10 lbs. I am still anemic, but I am hoping that will improve once I start the pureed diet on Wednesday. I am so sick of eating soup, jello and yogurt. I really want more flavor and I would love to be able to chew something. I am meeting with Dr. Shore and my dietitian on Tuesday. Can't wait for this next phase of the diet!!!
Hope everyone is well!! Hang in there, Poodlemama...everyday gets a little better!

Congrats Kendra!
I am sitting here laughing Kristie. I had my surgery the day after you, and can't tell you how many times I have said "I am so sick of eating soup, jello and yogurt. I really want more flavor and I would love to be able to chew something." LOL I'm having a hard time with sweet stuff. Protein drinks, jello, pudding and those chewable vitamins gagggg. I am down 20 lbs as of this morning though ! I did buy the plain Greek yogurt. Sometimes I add a little cinnamon or lemon juice. Refreshing after the sugar free stuff. I was tempted to add garlic powder, but was afraid I would want to dip chips in it LOL I'm a salt and crunch person vs sweets. I never imagined I would ever crave an egg as I do now LOL Best wishes !
