I cannot believe how fast time is flying by!!!!  It's incredible to me that I am 6 weeks post-op today!!!!  I'm down about 25 lbs since surgery and am eating most foods.  I am continuing to stay away from potatoes/rice/pasta and things like that that are high in carbs.  This time has gone so fast that I'm back to work on Thursday and it seems like I just went off to have my surgery.

How is everybody else doing???  Need some updates from people.

Whooohooo for real food!!!!  That was such an exciting thing to accomplish!!!!  And amazing how good real food tastes when you've been on liquids for a month!!!!

I work in a group home with mentally challenged adults and so it can be pretty physically demanding.  I was glad to have to time off and be home with the kiddos, but I really need to go back to work before I kill hubby (too much time together is NOT good for the relationship, LOL).

Way to go on the 25 lbs Jaynak!! I'm 2.5 weeks out, and doing good! Finally started soft foods, having a lot of trouble eating much, but for the most part feeling really great. I agree on the whole needing to get back to work thing, I'm starting to go stir crazy after being off for a month, but I go back on Tuesday. I swear, I've never been so excited to eat cottage cheese as I was when I was allowed to go back to foods!

It's great to see positive results after surgery isn't it?
