Hi my surgery went well with Dr Starr at HRRH.  Experiencing a bi of gas pain but no incision pain, have taken pain meds since Saturday night!  I m on full fluids and keeping everything down.  Nothing has disagreed with me.   Had a bit of an issue with aspartame but no issue with stevia. 

After 3 weeks of Optifast I thoroughly enjoyed a 1/2 cup of Quaker oats with milk and no sugar added maple syrup.  Looking forward to my cream of mushroom soup for lunch.  

Life is great and I've already lot 3.5 lbs.   

And did I mention?  You all  look fabulous today.

That's great to hear! Sounds like my journey thus far too. I woke up in recovery and asked the nurses if I was on pain meds, because I had no pain. Haven't had any pain at all, and haven't touched any pain meds. 

I totally know what that first serving of oatmeal was like for you.. I was on Opti for 5 weeks. It was like the best thing I've ever had :) I haven't been "seasoning" it, but I will be now. 

I've been home since Friday morning and I'm down 10lbs from then.

Glad all went well. Almost anything would taste awesome after Opti. LOL
