Don't think of it that way or you may cheat. Think of it as the beginning of you making the right choices for a healthy you! You dr won't know if you mess up once or twice. You will ! Don't cheat yourself of your new life. Good luck. We all know how very hard it is but everyone post op will tell you it's worth it. Hang in there

I would take the second opinion advice if I were you. I don't want anyone with that crappy of an attitude operating on me .

Today I saw the surgeon... Unfortunately I have sprouted a bump at one of my incisions. It is either a seroma, hematoma, or hernia. Whatever it is we just have to wait. Either the body will re-absorb it or if its a hernia the surgeon said we will wait until I lose weight to do surgery so there isn't so much pressure on it. I am doing well with weight loss. I am 3.5 pounds down from pre-op. I had a good conversation today about embracing my second chance at weight loss. I called the trainer today, back to training on saturday and back to work on Monday. My restrictions will be lifted at that time. I am not hungry and am enjoying my new appreciation of the commitment to be lifelong change. I am willing to try new foods in pursuit of obtaining the proper nutrition.

Well today is one week. I see my surgeon tomorrow, which is kind of exciting. I didn't see him after surgery. I got discharged by the nurse practitioner before he came in to see me the next day per my request. I got discharged about 24 hours after surgery. I am interested to see how things went being an operating room nurse I like to know the procedure part of things. I am having minimal pain. Nausea is finally subsiding. I am not hungry. Just a little weak at the end of the day. I am getting all my fluid in and all my protein. So far so good. Hopefully soon I will be posting about some weight loss
