Re: FOOD!!

Hi Marie,

I still consider you and all the other June 2nds my littermates. I

just have two sets of

litters. You will be surprised how much difference two days can make. Every

day I feel better and better. The first solid I ate were Better Cheddar

Crackers and they were great!

I had them on Friday while you were having your dance with Dr. R. I had

lasagna on Tuesday and it went down real well. I had a little beef stew from

Cracker Barrell on the way home and it was ok. I have eaten the crusty part

of a biscuit on two or three occassions

and I didn't have any problems. I ate the 1/2 sandwich of tuna on toast for

lunch today and it was great. I made the tuna with lots of mayo and a little

dill relish no boiled eggs. After Dr. R told us that one post-op ate

babyback ribs the day after surgery and has since lost 170 lbs

I decided that I would try to eat within reason. I do not feel deprived and

I'm still losing weight. He did stress that he does not " recommend " eating

this soon. Watermelon is fantastic....you can load it up with the salt we

need and it is easy going down and it's real juicy. I've also had grapes,

honeydew, cantalope and salad. No problems. Just listen to your body. DO NOT

OVER EAT!!!!!!! Doc said the stomach is healed at 5-7 days post -op but I'm

still careful not to get too much. I hope you're doing fine!!!!!!

Love,

Genz
