had surgery Wednesday

I can't believe I had it!  I had it performed at Tufts by Dr.Shikora and his staff.  They we all great!  The whole nursing staff was wonderful too.  Now, I'm just trying to get my fluid in and my walking.  I'm pretty sore, but this shall pass.  Just looking forward to the results and feeling better

it gets better every day i had my bypass 6/10/08 and at almost 1 yr postop ive lost 144lbs and ive gotton my life with my 51/2 yr old twins back just keep saying NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS THIN FEELS you will have a few bad days coming up but everyday you will learn to listen to your body and find out what you can have and what you cant ie. even now i cant eat reg. pasta best tip is get a blender and go out and buy triple whey protien at gnc then get freash fruit like strawberries,blueberries,banannas,melon etc. and make protien smmothies they taste great there not heavy so you wont get sick and youll get your protien good luck frank
