Staples out!

Friends As of yesterday My staples are out. I am in the pink. I had a good doctor's appointment. I lost a total of 38 pounds in two weeks. Not Bad I still have to take it easy for a while ,but all is so good. I even help a woman in the waiting yesterday who is going to have gastric bypass surgery. I unziped my pants down to my belly button. Which before the surgery I would never dream of doing that. I showed her what the surgery looks like after and I told her it did not hurt. Which for me it did not. So I hope I helped that woman. Here is the really great news. All liquid diet is over tomorrow. I get to start on soft foods tomorrow. Can you all say, HEY! I just wanting to let everyone know what is new in my life. I hope you all have good things happen for you. Your friends, Tina

WOW! Your doing awesome. I am so happy that your surgery and recovery is going well. Doesn't it feel soooooo much better to have those staples out!!! Keep up the great work. Hugs, Jacqueline

Tina I am a little confused again, did you have laproscopic or open surgery? You mentioned the staples. I had the lap RNY and only a few stitches holding the drain tube in place for 5 days. Enlighten me, my brain isn't functioning right this days. Love ya, Kathy

Way to go Tina!!!!!!!!!!!! I know you feel a lot better with your staples out. Take it slow with the soft foods to start with. If your tummy doesn't handle something well, go back to liquids for a day and wait a while to try that particular food again. You'll find that somedays a certain food will sit well and other days it won't. Susan
