Question:
I took a cruise

Hi all. I'm 4 months postop and my family and I got back this week from a Millenium cruise. I had really worried about how I would manage the food and wanted to report that everything went very well. The dinners, many courses over a long period of time, were actually the easiest to manage. Take 2 bites of the appetizer; pass it to my husband. Take 2 bites of soup; pass it to my husband. And so on. I lost 4 pounds and he gained 10! But he'll lose it quickly; he's that kind of guy. Anyway, if anyone has thought about taking a cruise and been anxious about it -- worry no more. It was very easy to manage and we had a great time! (You can see a picture of me and my son on New Year's Eve if you go to my profile. Thanks to Pam Leach for posting it for me!)    — [Deactivated Member] (posted on January 8, 2000)

I loved your story and your new photo was awesome! What a way to celebrate. I am reading posts such as yours, and now I'm getting so eager to get with it myself. March 15, 2000. You gave me a good shot in the arm today - to get rexcited about having the surgery. Thanks, SEC
