2.5 weeks post op

I went for my follow up on 5/8/08. I did not get weighed right before surgery so I don't know how much I've lost since surgery. I do know that I've lost 19.5 lbs since starting the liquid diet. It's so nice to have clothes that were gradually getting tighter actually feel loose. The only discomfort I have is when I try to stretch too much. I went back to work 15 days after surgery and, while I was a little tired, work was not that big a deal (I have a moderately physical job). The biggest problem I've had so far is that I tried to eat some chicken and it was a little too dry - it came right back up after some pain. I won't do that again - it was too uncomfortable. My surgeon will be on vacation so my first fill will be 7/3/08.
