So I've been out of the hospital for over a week I figured I give a little update. The good: I'm down 11 lbs since surgery. 39 lbs total!!!!!! I've been able to do a little walking but not too much. I started on more food like yogurt and today I'm going to try cream soup. I was really getting tired of just shakes.

The bad:

It's been tough. I have had a lot of pain and been tired. I think yesterday I was feeling a little bit better but then I started having problems with gout. I get it from time to time and it kicked in yesterday. So now my foot hurts and I'm hobling (sp?) around the house. Hopefully next week things get better and I start to feel good. I want to be able to get out do some walking and stuff.

Hi Dave, It good to see all the good things. Sorry to hear about the gout, I know that can be very painful, And of course the best thing you can do to speed up your recovery is to get up and move around. Hope you feel better ! Marc
