I did it!
Surgery yesterday, and my swallow test went perfectly. My doctor says "you're maybe even a little ahead" (I've been doing laps around the nurses station).
And who kno that chicken broth would taste this good?? And who knew that I'd be in a place there I hadn't eaten in 30 hours, and a few spoonfuls of broth were good to go? Who is this person? Just...WOW. I was really worried about eating so little food with that driving, desperate hunger. I get it now, though. Bye bye, Hungry Monster!
Remember all those diets that royally sucked and led to nowhere? This one wil be so easy and rewarding. Congrats.
As a newbie my own best advice is always remember how you got here and how you never want to return.
Congrats!
