I know you are scared I was also and every other person having surgery but believe me , it was good that I went thru with it. I never had a bad time 9 weeks out only sometimes we know we are full but the old habit sets in and I finish my plate of food and bad choice you feel really awful. I never got sick to my stomach but felt pretty miserable. I see nothing for you to worry about if you trust your doctor.

It's so hard cutting out the carbs ! Potatoes Pasta and brown rice are my weakness. So far I've had a can of potato Soup that lasted 2 days and it was yummy. Since I am off purée and back to solid food again,
I need some recipes, what are you finding is a good Protein meal ? I'm a chicken girl & was told it's too dry for me now ( not a seafood person)
Also, yes I had gastric bypass Do bake chicken then grind it with 1 T cr. of mushroom low sodium soup just tasted so good.

I agree I'll take my exercise more seriously it seems the most healthy and sane?

I thought about all the favorite foods I would like but I ended up not because with my salt problem its not the smartest thing for me to do! So good for anybody that did it and for the others good for you to hang tough, this the way our life has to be, like someone else said this won't be our last taste of something good we are I our way to to a healthier better life.
The date is set for arms and abs!
