@George,
Ooof I learned from someone who's been through similar surgery that I could be bloated for a good 3 months. Not an excuse to overeat of course, but it will probably explain #s for quite a while. I walked for almost an hour yesterday (and then had to nap for 2!). Felt very, very good to do something approaching normal. Thank you all for your support and encouragement, as always.
