Tomorrow is my day!

[Rexcom 39]

After 12+ years of looking into WLS, 3 different seminars and 100s of hours of blogs, forums, YouTube, and research papers....the time has come. Also after 20 years of a BMI of 40+, 3 comorbidities and a dozen diets (3 of them medically supervised), advice for my PCP, and now worn out knees....tomorrow is the day.
I'm a bit frightened but hopeful for a common, text-book surgery and recovery.

I should be home Wednesday night...and I'll provide an update.
Thank you all for your support!

Hey Folks,

I made it through surgery well yesterday. No issues whatsoever. I feel OK....just sore and a lot of discomfort when moving.... and I finally feel some gas coming on. The surgeon said everything went very well and the 22lbs I lost in the 2-week pre-diet was a big help. Right now I'm sipping Bone Broth with added GENEPRO Protein Powder (good stuff). Overall, on the day after surgery, I feel a little better than I expected.
I look forward to pureed foods on Friday. (Yes, my surgeons move to pureed foods on day 3-4 post-op) A week ago, I filled ~25 - 3oz containers with tasty pureed chicken, pork, bison, egg/avocado, and tuna....and then froze them...ready to warm. But now my focus is sip, sip, sip, walk, nap, sip, sip, sip, walk, nap. (not necessarily in that order 🙂

So far, all is well!

And Good on You Rexcom!
