jlb8080 45 Posted December 20, 2019 Hey guys! An update on me. I know I got a lot of help and encouragement reading these pre-op. I am on day 8 post-op. Went back to work yesterday and had a great day. I made it the entire 8hrs and wasn't tired at all. I do have a desk job which is nice. Today I weighed myself and I am down 18lbs!!! Can not believe I'm down so much after a week. Hoping this continues for a bit lol. I do have slight pain at the incision sites, but it's not a pain, more I know they are there. Zero problems with liquids or pureed foods, which I started today. Everything is settling pretty good. One thing I like and also need to get used to is once my tummy is full, that's it! You'll know and one more bite will prob mean throwing up lol. It's a great warning sign you've reached your limit lol. I am eating a lot of Soups and even add a couple crackers that I chew into mush basically and no problems there. So far so good. I feel so much better and I feel part of that is HOPE. Hope for the future and a feeling that there is an ending to feeling like crap every day. I know I have a ways to go but this one of the best decisions I have ever made. 1 2 eporter, Slownstedy and catchthewind reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
