1 month post-op visit
Well, it was actually 6 weeks yesterday. Bt the doc's scale, I am down 37.5 pounds and he is very happy with that...so am I. I haven't had any problems at all; just the occasional dry heave here and there. Never threw up from food or felt sick from something I had eaten. So, I am cleared to begin eating solids! YAY! I am getting so sick of yogurt and cottage cheese. I can start to try tog et my protein from food now as opposed to shakes and I am cleared to start going back to the gym. I am so excited.

Erin,
Hun that is great news and I know you are happy to be eating regular foods now.
I was so happy but also nervous to try new things but it all works out. We keep learing every day about our new pouches.
Take care hun and have a great day! ~hugs~

Erin,
Congrats ! I am glad to hear that you haven't had any problems with the food you have eaten. As pre - op it is really reassuring to hear things like that. I am sure you know exactly what I mean ! You are a excellent example in a non complicative recovery so far ! Keep up the good work !
Don't over do it at the gym now !!!
Take Care,
and
Carol


Dear Erin -- that's fabulous -- you're doing great -- it's very encouraging since I'm 2 weeks out and still on liquids for another 2 weeks. I had my first follow-up today and have lost 13 pounds. But alas I'm bored with my food choices and sad at times that I can't eat the way I used to -- I know it's a blessing and I'm truly grateful. Keep up the good work and congrats. Love Debbie
