Hello, My surgery was also on the 9th so im 4 days out, feeling pretty good just like the rest gas has been a pain! also not to be graffic but constipation.. I hope soon to be back to normal. Its nice for once not to feel hungry, protein shakes! have been trying them all, I think they have come along way in flavor. Im going back to work tomorrow not looking forward to my coffee fueled office and not able to partake. But its for the greater good RIGHT? Good luck to all of you.!
