Thanks Christine. Unfortunately I'm on puréed foods still so I can't eat my favorites. I lost about 20 lbs in the 4 weeks before surgery and then 11 days in hospital (not intentionally) which at this point is ok since I could lose another 20. However, I'm trying very hard not to lose any more weight. I do have a question about mouth care, so I'm going to try to figure out where to post that now.

Thanks.

Mary
