This is my first post. i am 11 days out and down 21 lbs. since surgery. Very happy about that. Overall I would say I feel good, but I do not have much ptience with myself. At my post-op visit I had to be reminded that Not only did I have an extensive bariatric surgery, but I also had an extrnsive hernia repair. So I need to give myself a break. My biggest issue is the drain. Hopefully it will be removed in 3 days.
