Hello

Good evening. I have been on these boards for a while and as of tomorrow I will be one month out from surgery. I typically read the general and VSG boards. I am also blogging on this site. Check it out. I look forward to meeting other men that have experienced this new way of life. Initially out of surgery I have to say the oust four days was brutal. I had now strength in my core from where they removed my stomach. I actually got stuck in my recliner as I did not have enough strength to sit up. As of today I am on the puréed diet and transition to the mechanically processed diet this Saturday. It is fun cooking new dishes and having such a small amount at a time I am accumulating a lot of leftovers as I have not gotten through my head to make smaller portions. I made some turkey chili the other day and ended up with about three quarts. Froze 2/3 of it. I had some chicken salad a few weeks ago and that was the best thing I ate sine cur very. Will I am done rambling and look forward talking to y'all.

Welcome to the group. Looking at your ticker, you've already done a great job. Keep up the good work, and look forward to hearing more about your progress.

Welcome to the loser's bench!  Keep up the good work.
