Starting my journey at BI - Boston

[J170 29]

How are feeling post op?

I'm good. Much better than the day's immediately following surgery. I had a very hard time with the anesthesia. Couldn't stay awake. Had to stay an extra day. Then I learned that morphine and I don't mix.

The first few days I couldn't eat or drink. I wasn't getting all my Proteins or fluids. Not even close. Doing so much better now. I can take respectable size gulps of Water which is really important to me because it's the only Fluid (other than wine) that I love.

Getting 60gms a day is hard, but possible.

Unexpected surprise.... My period returned ????. I haven't had it in months because my IUD, but I guess it's a side effect of surgery.

Starting weight: 276.5

Yesterday: 252

I'm happy with being 24.5 lbs lighter!!!
