Hi everyone! Names Amy ????

I'm 27 and will be sleeved 1/13. Only 12 days to go!! I'm super nervous but also starting to feel really excited. I just hope recovery goes smoothly, as long as that goes well, I think I can handle the transition pretty well! I have an Instagram that I'm using to document my progress, and I'm always looking to follow other WLS patients. I'm @plumppucker if interested :)

The surgery went well from what I was told and no strictures, leaks, or hernias yet! However, recovery has been very difficult. Only this past Tuesday did I start feeling better both mentally and physically. I'm having issues with puree food (make me feel like I need to lie down/sour stomach) so I've gone back to full liquids mainly (soft cheese doesn't negatively effect me). I'm going to start reintroducing some pureed food one at a time, to see what I can tolerate and what I can't.

I was having trouble getting my Protein in and I just couldn't stomach the RTD Premier Protein so I ordered GENEPRO which has 30g of Protein per tablespoon and is unflavored. It's been a game changer for me! Now I have no problem getting the 60g I need.

I've also started to see a therapist which I think will be helpful. I was expecting to have some difficulties mentally but they really are much bigger than I anticipated.

Anyway! Hope your recovery is going well!! Each day really does get better. ????
