  1. First time dealing with real food since surgery date, March 29. Got out of hospital on Easter and basically slept through the feeding frenzy at my mom's house. Bought lots of easy microwave food at costco per-surgery for husband to make for himself and our son. Tonight I felt better so I did the heating and dishing out on the plates - man, I wanted to take a bite of the rigatoni so badly! Hurried out of the kitchen and am chomping on my Popsicle. One more week of full liquids may make me crazy!!


  2. From central NJ - sleeved on the 29th. Gas build up in my left shoulder was most painful. Finally starting to feel relief. Stomach very swollen. Had a hernia repair during the surgery so I expect to be sore for a bit longer. Been so difficult to get in all the liquids. So far, I can only tolerate 1 Premier Protein drink and 10 oz of syntax nectar powder in ice Water per day. I force myself to sip hot broth at lunch and dinner time and eat 1 Jello cup for Breakfast. I was really looking forward to the Popsicles, but they taste so sweet right now.

    Took a week off of work and I'm glad I did. So tired. Napping a lot. Went for an hour walk yesterday in the sunshine, but it's very cold and windy today. Know I have to walk to relieve the gas and for exercise in general, so I am going to bundle up after I finish my broth and just do it. I've been having chills off and on since the surgery and wish it were warmer outside.

    I have my follow up appointment on April 9th. I'm not going to weigh myself until then.

    It's nice to read about everyone's progress.


  3. I've been stalking you all for months! Getting sleeved this Friday (March 29). Friday's Good Friday and today I turned 40. I feel like now's the time. My time to shine.

    I'm so happy for all of you I've been reading about and look forward to journeying with you soon.
