I admit that the first 14 days post-op probably included 5 pints of ice cream. In my defense, I had a SUPER sore throat and mint chocolate ice cream felt sooooo good on it.

But even then, not a lot of calories when the only other thing I was really consuming was protein shakes to keep my protein up. :/

I did have some weird things like oatmeal and mac and cheese post-op, but I'm still finding that solid foods are not so exciting and I can't eat much of them. Even though the surgery did nothing to my stomach organ itself, the muscles around it are definitely tighter so I can't eat as much solid stuff!

I'm glad for you that you are on the other side of surgery. Healing is hard work!

There is no person that has the power to take being on OH away from me.
