my post op appointment

went great. i'm down 14 pounds since surgery. all my blood work is great. i met with the new surgeon today. he has a very thick accent. also saw crystal. she took another picture. got my staples out. what a relief. shannon is a peach. saw corinne for some advice. i start pureed foods monday. i can't wait. dr. loggins says i'm doing great and not to worry about being tired. it's all normal. he said i could go back to work monday if i felt up to it but he said only half days. i assured him i would go home when i needed to. i have a very flexible job so can do that. he really did not want me to go so soon but is trusting me. so i'm pretty psyched about the progress so far. i just want food really bad. looking forward to a scrambled egg!

WHAT? 14 lbs. boy you must have energy now. that is so exciting.  Congratulations!!  you keep that up you'll be in a size 8 by the 4th....

Oops!  I didn't read this until now!  I am glad that everything went good for you!!  14 lbs is awesome!  Do you know the name of the new surgeon?  Will he be working with Dr Loggins?  I am sure Dr L needs some help as busy as he is! 

Kathy, the last name starts with an r i think. it was a blur today. my energy was high and i was fidgety. he is a permanent fixture. dr. loggins is doing so well he felt he needed the extra help to handle his cases. he'll be a great addition. i still like dr. loggins better. it was hard to understand the other dr. i think he's french?

That is awesome!  14 pounds is amazing!  I was psyched for a scrambled egg, but it didn't do it for me (after eating it to fast that one times).  I have mostly stuck to ricotta, cottage cheese, and refried beans.  I have to pick up a few things this weekend.

Glad everything went well. Is Shannon new too? Pam took my staples out It is cool to have Dr Loggins expanding his practice though.

congradulations on your success..glad you are doing great..how great it feels to be happy and healthy together..keep up the great work

Congratulations, that is so great!!!

14 pounds is wonderful.  I hope I can do as well when it is my turn.  Keep up the good work and enjoy that first bite of "real" food. Peggy
