Very important. May be doing damage

I started getting hungy when I was about 5 days out.  I just started eating small, tiny amounts and made sure to chew well.  I did/am doing just fine.

It's very important that you stick to the doctors diet because you could harm yourself. Your stomach is swollen after surgery.  Also, it's a mind thing because you are not use to diet.  Not sticking with the plan could cause you to slip into old habits and possible gaining weight.

Be strong!
