Had Surgery on July 25th
My husband Ronnell had surgery on July 25th and he is feeling great. He is on a pureed diet. Mashed Potatoes. refried beans, he can eat anything as long as it is the consistency of apple sauce. He is one week post-op today and returned to work today. The only limitations that he has, is he can't lift anything over 15lbs. He had really bad gas after the surgery, but 20 minutes after they put him in his hospital room he had the nurse help him up and he went for a walk to relieve the gas. Gas was the only real complaint he had and that was just the first 4 days. It was a laproscopic surgery so he has 6 small incisions which aren't bothering him at all now. He's already lost some weight, we just aren't sure how much because they won't let him weigh until he goes back for his 2 week check-up. So we will let you know next week. We have been for walks every afternoon, and went to the flea market yesterday where he got plenty of exercise. I hope everyone else who has this done, has as much luck as he did with it!
Awesome Ronnell
Great job!!!
Ya I had the gas thing to, but finally feeling some relief
from it. I'm still on liquids for 2 weeks total so your blessed to be eating the soft stuff so soon.
Anyway congrats on the good sucess and keep it up
