    Yes, everyday I could do a little more of the puree. And drink more water. Everyday did get easier! Now I'm starting to workout and def feeling its much easier without the extra weight. Internally everything feels completely normal moving around that much. I did feel a little pull by a scar doing a plank yesterday but no pain just enough to notice. You will be amazed at how quickly your body recovers!

    Might take only a few weeks to stabilize. 3 pounds less you'll have to lose after surgery! Yay!

    I'm feeling great!! Been stuck in a stall for 4 looong weeks but it doesn't bother me that bad. I know it will move again. I've had lots of changes in my body though that are keeping me on track. Getting up in the morning, I feel energized not groggy. I can get off the floor and couch a lot easier. I'm down a size so all my clothes fit so much better. Overall I'm just very happy and in a great place right now. Tuesday ill be 6 weeks out so I can start getting back into the gym. I loved working out! Are you all ready for your class??
  7. I was sleeved the same day! One week in I was up 2 pounds and I told the scale "well, **** you then!" I waited a couple days to get back on. It has since come back off plus a pound. Probably out of fear. I've always lost weight like that so I guess I have to expect that now as well.

    G'bye size18!

    Wow, that's awesome!!! You look fantastic. And happy!!
  9. I've gotten my passport in a week using a private service for an extra fee. I am a citizen though so I'm sorry I can't comment on that part of it. Good luck!!!

    Yes. The acid reducer changed everything lol I'm feeling sooo good now. Almost forget I had surgery at times...then I move and remember! It's not bad. Just sore. No pain meds and water is going down much easier. I'll be glad to move to soft foods tho! Sick of puree.

    Feeling good. Tomorrow will be one week post op. Due to my insurance being kind of a butt about nexium, I haven't had a acid reducer but my nurse called in prilosec today so I'm going to get that. I hope that makes some sort of difference with the chest pressure and burps. Today is my first day watching my 3 dogs and 16 month old alone so wish me luck!

    This next month will fly by for you! Trust me. I put a countdown on my phone and before I knew it, the days had ticked away. I'm feeling pretty good. Walked half of Woodfield mall yesterday before I said enough. Didn't bring my pain meds. Which I was do for about halfway thru. Still not too bad. Feeling lots of gas today but gonna get out and do some more walking tonight.

    Thank you ladies! I'm home now and missing the schedule of the hospital lol the Tylenol they gave me is horrible crushed up! I tried to mix it in water with crystal lite but my stomach went crazy. This heating pad is saving me right now.
