I had my surgery on March 8th with Dr Blackstone, so far so good, I dont have alot of energy but was glad to finally get my first meal on Tuesday. I was getting tired of broth and jello. I feel a little better every day and plan to go back to work on Monday, that will be the real test. I have lost 15 lbs so far as of today and have had only one time which was tonight that I felt a bit quizy after I ate, I was in a hurry and I think that had something to do with it. I have been to the grocery store, I noticed the foods I use to get but was not hungry and able to walk on by. I even sat in a restaurant tonight for a meeting while everyone around me ate, I was really not tempted to eat anything, I just drank my water. I know this is just the beginning, but so far so good....
