Welcome to the losers bench!!

I had my surgery on May 9. Not sure what my weight was that day (silly, I know) but I've lost 7.5 since my discharge day of Saturday! Things went very well but the surgeon tied the top of my pouch a little tight so fixed it while still in. Because I was under an hour longer than usual, he insisted on my staying an extra day to see how I tolerated fluids. The worst part was having my drain removed. It wasn't planned but he was being extra cautious bc of the minor complication (which I appreciate). The drain removal SUUUUUUCKED. Oh, I almost passed out. I'm a little tired but very mobile. Am able to get in about 30 g of Protein per day but that's pushing it for me. Pushing the liquids, though. How is everyone else?!??!
