Thanks to all that have responded to my rant this morning........I am glad

that I have had this surgery, because I really have no choice but to keep

doing the right things......Its not like I can go out and eat a pizza or a

big mac and fries like the old days when I would have bad days.....I have

had a protein shake today along with a south beach diet bar for lunch. I

guess I might need to take in more calories so my body will not go into

starvation mode, but I'm just not hungry. When I eat solid foods, I can only

eat 2oz. max, and sometimes not even that much.....So I get this feeling

like what is the use cooking anything if I can only eat like 4 bites! So

sometimes I tend to just not eat, or if I do its soup or something soft like

that, I can just heat it up in the microwave........I'm still going to do

the right things, I thank you all for listening to me babble!

Hey Mike,

This may seem strange to you, but as a preop I find the rants (and

replies) really useful. I am sure I will be going through the same

thing and having those feelings in a few months and it is good to see

that other people (even those as amazingly successful as you) go

through these stages. I know I won't be alone and I save all of the

suggestions for reading when I get to that point.
