Drumroll please.......

Well just got back from my first post op appt with Dr. Abkin. I just have to say I love this man!!!! He's wonderful, informative and very funny!! Had a few questions and he answered all of them with a valid explanation!!!

He removed my last Steri Strip and said everything was healing wonderfully. I'm not able to move onto to mushie foods and if all is ok  than in two weeks I can start solids. I will see him in 6 weeks for a follow-up.

Tommy and I went out to breakfast to celebrate and I had a Cheddar Cheese Omelette, I ate half of it and I was FULL!!!! I was sooo happy and amazed!!! I chewed, chewed, chewed and waited in between bites. No drinking during eating and set the alarm on my phone to let me know when 30 mins was up so I could drink again!!!

Oh...I almost forgot....my Blood Pressure was awesome!!!!

One more thing......I LOST 12 FREAKIN POUNDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am beyond estatic! I can't stop smiling!!!! Did ya think I'd forget to tell you all that most important fact?! Nooooooo, I was just playin!!!!

Hope everyone has a great day!!!!!

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is soo great!!!!!

Yeah Kimi. I'm so glad your appointment went well. That's great. 12 lbs is supper too. That's where I was at this stage of the game. Keep up the great work and remember to chew chew chew!!!
