Ten Days Post-Op

By tgonzale1959

· 473 views

I am now ten days post-op. So far so good. I start pureed foods next Wednesday. By doctor's last weigh in pre-op I am down 15 lbs. Per my personal weigh in day of surgery 10 days ago I am down 11 lbs. So I am averaging a loss of a lb a day.

 

I am getting nervous starting the pureed foods next week, I plan to just eat baby food for convenience for most meals. I hope I lose at least 4 more lbs before starting them up.

 

But I must say this has been going very smoothly and hope it continues, It took me a few years to decide to do this but I am sure I made the right decision. I can't wait to be released to work out with less poundage!

    baby foods...didn't even think of that for my 'mushie' stage - I'm not banded yet - but scoping out the posts getting ideas...and since I live alone and don't cook for anyone else - maybe eating baby foods will be more convenient....

    @mufasas-mom: Good luck on your surgery! Another milestone today was I could actually cross my legs over my upper leg. Can't remember how many years I have not been able to do that!
