Recovering Well!!

Hey everyone!!

Thank you for all your well wishes in regards to my surgery.  Everything went smoothly and I am back at work.  Had some issues with gas pain and reflux while in the hospital but doing much better now! I am 8lbs down from surgery.  Exciting but also a little scary, especially when you're not used to seeing the scale move that fast.  Head hunger has been a bit of a battle but I'm staying strong.  I'll be on solid foods soon enough.  Thank you again, so glad to be apart of this community!!

Great news! Chewing gum is my new best friend! My stomach is never hungry but my head is!

Hi Chelsy, Congrats on being sleeved, and welcome to the losers bench! 

Keep up the good energy.  For drinking water helps with hunger and I really enjoyed avocado mashed with greek yogurt along with broth.

Best of luck

Good Evening,

    I am going into surgery in a week and just wondering about what I should expect...I am a google head so I spend long nights researching and exploring recipes...Looking forward to a healthier life....

Expect to have some discomfort.  The worst pain was from gas and reflux. Otherwise, I was just sore.  The swallow test will probably make you feel nauseous but hang in there! The first 2 days after surgery were the most painful but each day you definitely feel better and better! Congrats and good luck!!

cnanny... Thank you much. I will post updates as they come along.....

Good luck!  I have my consult on 8.23.16.  I still have some time to research more information on recipes. Take care and God bless!!

Congrats Chelsy!!!  Glad you are doing well!

Hi Chelsy, I am glad to hear your recovery is going well.
