Wow I just joined today, becasue I was feeling down about gaining a pound. I had my surgery August 11th, and started my soft foods August 25th. When I got on the scale yesterday and saw that I gained a pound, it really put me in a funk :-(.. I'm glad I found this site to be able to talk to people who are going through the same thing as me. I get my first fill September 6th, and I can not wait.
