Day 10 post-op
Hi all. Feeling so blessed. I feel great and so glad I did the surgery so far. I have had no trouble with food or liquids and I am looking forward to pureed stage next week. I am down another size and so excited. I feel like I want to run a race, but then I remember I am so tired so not yet lol. I will not rush the process, but I am grateful I feel I could. Thank you all for your support
Congratulations. I really appreciate reading the posts and seeing how everyone is doing in their early stages. Questions that are being asked and answered are on topics or issues I haven't even thought about. This is a terrific forum of supporting people who take the time to encourage and respond.
Good luck in your continued journey. I will read with interest.

This is great to hear! Wow, you're doing so well! Does the fatigue impact your day? Are you able to manage without naps? I'm wondering about working from home a few days after surgery, but worry about it being a bit ambitious if there is a lot of fatigue?
Keep being amazing!
Way to go!
