    Skinny mashed potatoes are awesome! I can't believe how much I am enjoying them! Let me know if you want the recipes. No butter, salt or milk!

    Hi sprinkle!!!! Yes, I was definitely hungry! I can tell the difference between hunger and gas as of today. I call the nutritionist and to her I was so hungry I felt dizzy and nausea. She told me to eat a couple of ounces of mashed potatoes that have been thinned with milk . I did and those were the best mashed potatoes I ever ate!!!!! I could only eat about an ounce though. Yes I am so happy to get the staples out, I am definitely healing and my stomach itches!!!!!!

    Day 6 and feeling better by the day! Staples out tomorrow! Worked yesterday, came home after 6 hours. Went in today and worked 7 hours in the office then had a dinner seminar for 3 hours. I had broth while everyone else was eating lamb chops and drinking wine! But it was fine, I was happy with my broth!!!! My back started hurting and I felt a little nausea, left the seminar early. Feeling much better lying in my bed! I hope everyone is doing well!!!!
