Hi everyone! I am 4 weeks post-op today, and down 35 lbs!

My first couple weeks were pretty rough (I felt tired, sore and crappy). During my third week I had to go back to the hospital because I had an upper-GI bleed from 2 stomach ulcerations. They stopped the bleeding and gave me new blood and platelets, and sent me home in 2 days......and now in my 4th week, I feel like a million bucks. I am able to eat more proteins, which is helping me regain my energy, and I am chasing the kids around the house, which tells me I must be feeling much better! I was so happy to get on the scale this morning and see my progress. It makes all the blood, sweat and tears well worth it! Hope everyone is doing well on their journey. I'll post again when I have some more weight-loss progress to report!
