17 Days post-op

dfw1974 · January 6, 2017

Hello All...

Today I am 17 days post-op and it was the first day I did not vomit. I was able to get up and do some things around the house without having to sit and rest every 5-10 mins. It felt good to have some energy and be functioning like normal. I am down 22 pounds since my surgery day. Hot flashes are the worst, at least one every hour. I know that I am not getting all my Water and Protein in but I just keep trying. Looking forward to everyday for improvements! I had to push back my return to work day by a week since I have been struggling, hoping for next week returning to work. One good note, when I look in the mirror... I can see the loss in my face!!!

No it is normal with some, I am very sensitive I guess!

I get sick when I get over hungry. My stomach only growls when I eat. I don't get hunger pains anymore, so I have to watch the clock like a hawk if I don't want to wretch.
