Hope that helps!!  Now that i'm into the pureed foods I'm sure it's going to get more interesting.  Don't worry about protein the first two days home.  Start up on day 3 when you start "full" liquids.  Start taking chewable vitamins when you start pureed foods, unless you have liquid vits that you can start now.  Rest dahlink...

HEY!  I put a pretty colorful pic of my bruised tummy in a Post-Op album on my profile if you want a little TMI!  LOL

Glad you are back Tracey.  <3
