new here, 8 days post-op

had Roux-n-y on June 13. Feeling good, back to work. Dr. is very conservative, so I'm still on clears for 2 weeks. I go to full liquids for 4 weeks, then mushy/pureed in august. I lost 12 pounds already! Heather

Congrats on having the surgery and loosing 12lbs . Wow I cant believe your bad at work already i say congrats to being able to do that. I miss work and cant wait to get back thats for sure. Jess

Congrats on the 12 pounds! I had my surgery on the 13th as well but I've got no clue how much I've lost so far. I can't weigh on regular scales and can't afford the higher capacity ones. Oh, well. I'm on full liquids now. I'm so hungry, though. It's horrible. But I know it's gonna be worth it.

Hi Heather, I am a day behind you and getting ready to go back to work tomorrow. I am on 2 weeks protein liquids and looking forward to "soft" foods after my check up on the 29th. I am being stubborn about the scales at this point... but looking forward to finding out how much of a loss on the 29th. Good luck and keep a smile on your face! Kim
