  1. Congrats! hope your recovery is a fast one! its one week for me tomorrow. first Dr. appointment today! i will share the progress. so far 10 lbs down.
  2. HI guys. I am sorry I am just getting back to answering this post I have taken my recovery seriously and have not logged on mostly because i had mild headaches due to the lack of sugar. My pain experience from 1-10 was a 3 and mostly because I felt uncomfortable sleeping upright and not on my side. No nausea! My mom was in the hospital to help me get up to go RR. I was up 2 Hrs later walking. Thehardest part int he 48 hour stay was that i was thirsty and i couldnt have ice chips until discharge so i kept washing my mouth. In the last 5 days post-op the hardest has been sipping since I am thirsty and eant to down a water bottle. Like i mentioned a few headaches due to lack of sugar, but nothing an ice pop and childrens tylenol didnt fix. Also i still find myself craving, its more mental I guess. Still eyes bigger than stomach since I seem to think I can still eat a burger when in reality I cant even finish a jello. Hope this helps.
