Sorry for repeat..dont know what happened there ( :

[LuminousLife 145]

No worries, happened to me yesterday.

[LuminousLife 145]

Day 12: First day pain free! No incision pain or anything! I can bend, and even applied a little pressure that normally painful site and it didn't hurt at all! I feel great. No trouble with fluids. I feel normal again lol. Still no movement in the scale since day 7. Side note Glue on top incision is gone today. Healed nicely.

Hi LuminousLife - What have you been able to drink besides Water since day 7?

Do you have any feeling of hunger at all? I really do appreciate your daily posts!

This daily posting on the trials/tribulations is very helpful Luminous.

9 days to my surgery.

Thank you. I will try to do this also for my journey.

[LuminousLife 145]

I'm glad people are finding it helpful. Its also therapeutic. I recommend it. I'm also journaling it for myself.

Will post more about day 13 later buuutttt I'm down 2 more....that's -19! (Sw 230, Cw 211)

Day 13: I had another great day. No pain, no trouble with my fluids. I feel normal again! I catch myself forgetting I had it done. Tomorrow I should get the approval to move to phase 3. I am so excited to eat eggs and cottage cheese!!!! I decided to follow a Paleo way if eating for health reasons along with weight loss since I am able to get in enough Protein without shakes. My husband also wants to try it. So good things all around. No regrets.

[LuminousLife 145]

Well that's it folks. 2 weeks. I feel great, 19lbs down. I'm onto stage 3 as of today and will post a weekly check in. So excited to eat an egg tonight! Best of luck to everyone. Feel free to ask any questions, I will do my best to answer them.
