4 Weeks Post-Op Today!

4 weeks ago today I had my vsg surgery! That is the day I woke up from what seems to have been several years of hibernation. I am freaking happy, happy, happy! I've lost 30lbs (by my scale) so far and I can't imaging the level of happiness when I hit the -50, -60, -70 and so on and so forth milestones! To celebrate I'm going for a long walk along the San Francisco Bay (right outside my office) and will throw in several flights of stairs this afternoon.

 

I'm so excited to move on from the 4-weeks of fluids - yes, I made it for 4 weeks. Ok, there were a couple times in the fourth week where I had a couple teaspoons of some mushed up beans and potatoes and some hummus (just needed something with texture), but all is good.

 

I have my follow-up appointment, Thursday of this week. My doc was out of the country, so I wasn't able to get a 2-week follow-up appointment (I could have seen another doc, but I'm not having any issues). I'm excited for that appointment.

 

All is wonderful. Life is good. Jah bless, Jah guide!

One Love.
