Don't Even Feel like I Had Surgery

All people contemplating this surgery need to know that it is actually, as far as the surgical part goes, a piece of cake. I was discharged a week ago last night and I don’t even feel like I had surgery. Sure, it’s hard to get used to only drinking, but other than the scars from the staples and incisions, I don’t even feel like I was cut open last week.

Every blood sugar I have taken since the surgery has been within normal range for normal people, not just for diabetics. THAT makes it worth while.

However, I do have a very hard time sitting down to meals with the family when they are eating all kinds of stuff I can’t have. Tonight Bart is making spaghetti and it smells so good. I’m going to have to sit there and watch them eat it while I have cream of something in the blender soup and some milk. And I’m NOT going to like it.
