3 weeks out!!
Well yesterday was 3 weeks post op. I am feeling so much better. My scares are healing good. I am able to move so much better. I have been sleeping in the bed for the past 3 nights. Although it makes my hips hurt, I am getting more sleep. To my scale I have at home I have lost 33lbs. I go back on 5/29 for my 1 mth follow up. I will find out the true loss. I can kinda see it. I am able to wear all of my wedding rings now. One I haven't been able to wear in a while. It really feels good. I put on a pair of jeans yesterday that used to be too tight. They fit with some looseness WOOHOO!!! I just hope I am doing everything right. Sometimes I feel I don't eat enough. I do miss the chewing part of it. My puree trial is almost up. I can't wait!! I hope I do well. I will be returning to work on 6/2/08. That is if Dr. Byrne releases me. I want to thank all who have responded to my concerns. This is a wonderful site which has some fantastic people!! I am glad to be a part of it
Congrats!! I had my surgery just a couple of days before you. I went for my 1 month post-op yesterday. My offical weight loss since surgery is 33lbs!! I'm also excited. I had the same experience with pants as you. It's kind of amazing since right after surgery I felt like a bloated whale. Great job, keep on loosin'!
