Congratulations on starting the journey. After my surgery I stayed on the liquid diet for 2 more weeks. Then it's on to mushies for 2 weeks and finally regular food after 4 weeks. I know exactly how you feel. The post op was harder for me than the pre op. Make sure you get your Protein Shakes to help keep you full. But this time will pass before you know it. Hang in there. Congrats on the 10 pounds and good luck on your surgery.
