one week post op update, my first SV and y first NSV.
I have been MIA for the most of the week. I had my one week follow up today. I felt great after surgery except my G tube about drove me BONKERS!! I have never been so glad to see something go. It was very uncomfortable and hurt when I coughed, sneezed, laughed or anything like that. But it is out now and I am already feeling so much better. So here is the update on everything.
My first SV........I lost 18 lbs on the liquid pre op and 12 since surgery on May 30th. Yeap I am down 30 lbs! I got a little misty eyed when I saw that.
My first NSV.......I have a pair of pajama pants that I LOVE. I stopped wearing them because they got snug and I was uncomfortable. Well I tried them on and they fit! I was so happy!
I am walking a lot and getting in about 80 oz of water. I am struggling with getting in my protein as everything smells and taste awful. I started soft foods today and for my first meal I had a little bit of refried beans that I thinned with a little broth.
So that is my update. I will be on more now that I am back home from San Diego.
Yay! Sounds like you're doing great. :)

YAY! I am so happy to see this update! AWESOME news on the weight loss and fitting in your jammies!
Question--what is a G tube?
I feel like we all have such different surgeries for the same procedure, lol!
