I just started the semi-soft diet. I am tolerating the food well, but I have felt hungrier the past two days. I haven't been too tempted to go off the prescribed meal plan, but I am eating more often. My surgery was two weeks ago, I feel really good and have lost 7 lbs since surgery.
As people who have issues with food, and most of us do, I think we need to be patient with the process, with ourselves and with this major change in our lives. I remind myself every day that I did not put myself through this to fail. I also am grateful for this chance to not have to die like my mother did; from complications of diabetes.
