I just got back from my one week (plus 2 days!) post op visit with Dr Ikramuddin. Everything is going great. I start pureed foods today ~ never thought I'd be so excited about cottage cheese or milk! I lost 9 lbs since surgery day WOOHOO!! And they are letting me take another week off of work which is nice, I will have some time to get in to a routine with eating pureed and the next stages. You were all right~this is an amazing ride!

Wow, 9 pounds after surgery is good since you also have to get rid of all that extra air they pump into you.  Pureed foods taste wonderful after all those liquids.  I am glad you are taking another week off of work because it does help to have that time to get into a good schedule/routine with your new eating/drinking/walking.  Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the update, Kris!  Sounds like you're doing wonderful!  And that 9 lbs is on TOP of all the liquids that get pumped into you in the hospital!  Enjoy the heck out of every bite you take, 'cuz you won't be taking many!!! WOO HOO!!!
