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

YaY YaY Congratulations to you!!! 33 lbs is awesome for 3 weeks you're doing great. That's 11 lbs a week just think if you continue on that track you'll be to goal in no time. Now you're going to have stalls so don't get discouraged. Keep up the good work!! (((HUGS)))

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'!

That sounds awesome. I too have lost like 30lbs in 3 weeks. Yeah I too miss the chewing but it seems to be getting better. Keep up the good work.
