Hi everyone! I'm new at this! I had my surgery last week one week ago today! I am an Italian cook! And I love food, but unfort for me, the Italian side of my family also comes with high Bp, diabetes, ect, so, I took the chance and had the surgery! Was very excited! But now that it's over.. Not so much my friends and support tell me it gets easier, I'm very nervous in ways of what to drink, or eat, since doc says I can have the stage 2, and WOW!! Do I miss the taste of food!!!!!! I thought once the surgery was over it would be diffrent, I know that it will get easier, and I will eventually be able to eat more of my fav's. but I do believe this is the best option for the bariatric surgery! So thanks everyone for welcoming me aboard
