Hello to anyone who may be reading this. I am home from the hospital post surgery. The pain med is kicking in so this may be short. The surgery went very well. I had a hernia too that I didn't know about. Dr Proctor fixed that while he was in there. The nursing staff on the 6th floor at NE Ga Hospital are AWESOME! The took amazing care of me. I met 2 nurses that had the surgery also and they looked amazing, felt amazing and love to share their experience with their patients.
I am on a liquid diet for one more week, then I eat an egg and go to the doctor for my one week check up. If it goes well I can start phase 2 of the diet, soft proteins. I do not feel hungry at all. I have to drink and eat in small amount to protect my new pouch until it heals....and then to keep from getting sick. So it is fair to say my eating habits are now changed forever!
I am inspired by the people I have met in group support and at the hospital during my journey so far. I think I can do this thing.
Linda
