Ok guys. I have lost 6lbs so far which is about 1-2 lbs per day with this liquid diet. I just have two more days on liquids.

I havent had any nausea but the large incision pain is excruciating when I move. The pain meds do very little for that.

My tummy is still swollen but none of the smaller incisions hurt at all. You dont realize how many muscles u were using to simply sit and stand until your stomach has been pulled through them. Lol

I actually had a normal formed stool today which usually doesnt happen for a full week. But yay anyway.

I walk every hour for a couple minutes. Pee every 2 hrs. Oh yeah, coughing up surgical leftover mucous hurts like hell. So splint when you cough.

I will let you know more each day. Ladies ask for diflucan because the periop antibiotics can cause a yeast infection.

My meal plan consist of homemade fruit and Protein smoothies.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
