Hi!' It started out kinda rough, I had gas pains for the first week. The second week I was able to get my liquids in. 3rd wk I hurt myself really bad as I let the car door swing open and I reached out to close it.  " I thought I had done ireversable damage"  The pain was worse than the surgery pain. Lesson learned, everything else is just fine. Still only able to eat 2oz at each meal. Can't eat cheese, only eating crab meat, deli meats.

You're doing WAY better than I am!  Have yet to reach water goal, have yet to find protein shake I like so getting hardly any protein, suffering from extreme nausea so very hard to even WANT to eat/drink! Its been a really rough road for me, but I try to stay optimistic.

Keep up the good work!!! I hope to get over this hump soon so I can begin to enjoy this process.

I believe it will get better soon. As the Vets say, stick with it. It will get easier!  Keep in touch.
