I had my surgery yesterday morning and everything went great. I wasn't in a ton of pain and was up moving around and sitting in the chair a lot. I left the hospital around 1 today and am feeling great. I am a little sore but it is very managable. I have been sipping on water and am having 1/2c of pea soup (or what I can get down) right now. I am not hungry at all but I figured since I havent had any protein since about monday it was time to try to get something down. I am kinda afraid to eat too fast so I am going VERY slow with eating and drinking.  So far it has been GREAT! Yesterday was a little hard with no liquids at all but it was worth it.

If anyone has any recipes for reduced fat cream soup that you want to share that would be awsome. DH is going to make some cream of broccoli tomorrow but that is all we have right now to try. Thanks :)
