I don't want to sound paranoid, but...

I am five days post op (proximal RNY, transected pouch) and am already finding that I am able (and want!) to "eat" more than the doc says I should be able to...He says I should only be able to take in 4 tsp. of yogrt, but I have been able to eat almost a full container w/no problems- I have to make myself stop. I can swallow things just about as quickly as I could pre-op, too. I am in the full liquid stage (lasts 3 more weeks) and find I am already wanting to go to pureed/soft solids...getting very hungry. So, it's not like I want to puke or anything, but to be honest, at this point I don't feel much different than pre-op at all, and am afraid I will demolish an entire pizza unless I GET SOME FOOD NOW. Thanks for listening. PS I see the doc tom. and will definitly share all this, but I wanted to get your input too...
