I am doing better than I ever dared to hope I would. I am 100% without pain except for slight soreness where my port is located. I did the shopping yesterday for about seven or eight hours all told and yeah, I was kind of tired afterward, but still managed to make the family dinner and whip up the dough for Christmas sugar cookies. Weight is coming off nicely and though I get severely hungry very fast, I stay satisfied after eating for quite a while. My postop appointment is Monday. I should be cleared to start mushies this coming Friday. I am thrilled so far with my decision to do this. I went to La Madeleine for lunch yesterday and could not finish the small cup of their tomato basil soup. That was a real trip and thrilling to me. I have good restriction, though it does seem to get a little less every day. I am three weeks from my first fill though, so its all good. I just try to keep my protein intake up.

Glad to hear you are doing okay!
