Update - 2 weeks out (and a day)
Went back to work yesterday. Which was good as I was getting bored. I am still bored. Can't wait to get back to normal activities. And that is going to be my first question when I go back for my follow up with the hospital next week! Gah, no one warned me about the boredom. (who knew you could have too much Netflix...?)
Feeling good. In fact if I am not eating or drinking or looking at the fast fading wounds on my belly, I could forget I even had surgery 2 weeks ago!
Food is going well. Eggs good, but tuna bad. The tuna went down and stayed down but did it's best impression of a rock. Not comfortable. Getting into the work routine is taking some getting used to. Forgot to take my vits to work. But I can get them in before bed. It. is. so. hard. to. not. drink. and eat. at. the. same. time.
Energy levels are ok. BMs are ok. Had some gas pains last night but nothing serious.
Oh and yeah.. the weight is coming off.
Booya!

I'm 2 wks 1 day also! I was bored too! Back to work yesterday and I'm glad. I also struggle with the drink/eat, I feel like I am always waiting to eat or waiting to drink. Congrats on the smooth sailing and awesome weight loss!!
How is your first week back going. Everyone at my work is being so cute trying not to eat delicious things in front of me. But really I am ok. My biggest issue is I get busy and forget to drink.
