So far So good

[Mrs.Harkness 36]

Went for my first post op visit yesterday. (Surgery was on the 19th of feb) They removed my bandages and everything looks good. I'm down 38lbs and I can have soft pureed foods like eggs, and fish. I feel good. I go back to work in two more weeks. That's what I'm not looking forward too. Lol

Horray for you! You sound like you are doing wonderful! I went back to work after 1 week post op and wished I would have taken 2 weeks. Not because I needed it physically, but it was nice to have the break! : )

Just a tip for returning to work: don't introduce any new foods for the first time while at work. Only take 'safe' foods you've had no problems with to work. Every time I tried new foods at work (maybe 5-6 times over 8 months) it made me sick, which resulted in 1-3 hours of pure misery while hiding out in the ladies room. The first time was the worst and it was only tuna. I was supposed to be in a training class for our new computer system but I spent three hours in the ladies room trying to puke and waiting for it to pass. It was embarrassing and humiliating. Save experimenting for weekends or days off. :-)

I'm glad you're doing well! For some reason I'm dying to have some tuna fish, I hope my taste for it doesn't manifest into a puking session in the ladies room! I'm suppose to go back after 4 weeks, but trying to push for 6 weeks.
