13 days out and staples out today!!
Hi everybody, just wanted to say that I got my staples out today.. it wasn't bad but I made a lot of faces and clenched my fists alot.. hehe I told my surgeon I was gonna grab a hold of his coat in a minute lol. The nurse just said oh just grab his tie! lol I had surgery (laproscopic roux n y) on the 25th of June. I haven't lost as fast as you guys, I have lost about 15 pounds only since the 25th. But my surgeon said that was good and NOT to compare myself to others, but it is hard. lol He told me another week on full liquids and that I had the proximal surgery. Also my new pouch is about 30 cc's big (he said it was real small lol) The biggest problem I have had so far is getting in 64 oz of water a day.. but I am working on it. I pretty much live on sugar free pudding , sf applesauce, and carnation instant breakfast. He also told me that I needed to be walking as much as possible. I told him I enjoy walking around the mall cause it is just too hot outside lol... Take care all!
