3rd update

Hi all you beautiful ladies and Just wanted to let you know I'm 20 days post-op and finally starting to feel better. today was the first day my tummy didn't hurt and that is good. Dropped about 18 lbs so far but I'm still on liquids and soft stuff. Tried some blended veggies last week and that was a big mistake as it didn't stay down. Go back for my 1 mo checkup in 10 days or so to see how things are progressing. Kat said he should have given me a prescription for tummy aches but they didn't and I persevered thru it.Sorry I haven't been on much but haven't really felt like it either plus we have lost power twice this month due to thunderstorms. I think a little black cloud hangs over my area and kills the electricity. OMG, you don't really know how much you need it till you lose it for 4 days straight and then a week later it's gone for another two days. Anyway, all is better now. Hugs all around and hope to see ya'll soon...Jim

Hi, Jim:  I am glad to hear that you are doing better and doing so well with the weight loss!  Hang in there.....better days ahead!  :)

yep thanks for the confidence--I was beginning to wonder if it would eventually get better and I think it is but pretty slow for me as I'm still on soups and soft stuff---can't wait for the better days but I'm just a loser for sure...haha  Jim

Hey there Jim!  Good to hear you are doing okay.  If you find a food that doesn't agree, give it a week rest and then try again.  You never know, you may evnetually be able to tolerate the veggies, maybe once you can eat them as a solid?  GOOD LUCK!

Hey Lauren how goz it with you?? As for the food that didn't agee, I just don't eat any more of that and even some soups are almost intolerable for me. I'll get there one of these days and thanks for the luck as I need it...Jim

Hi Jim - glad that you are finally starting to feel better!  Sometimes it takes a while but you should have called your doctor as you should not be hurting much this far out...... so please don't wait another 10 days if you are still feeling rough........

So sending you good wishes and we look forward to seeing you at the Meet and Greet BBQ/Health Seminar next Saturday! Jackie
