Had my post op appt today from 10/28 surgery & am down 14.5! Can't move on to purées til Mon & I'll be counting the days for sure ????

Hey everybody!
Stopping by to show you my current favorite. It's so yummy!!!!
Oikos Greek yogurt in pumpkin pie!
11 grams of Protein. 

I just got home from first post op checkup. I had surgery 14 days ago. My surgeon was livid with the front office for scheduling me so far out. He said I should've been in to see him a week ago, and because of scheduling, unbeknownst to them or me, I have been on full liquids a whole week longer than they require. My NUT told me I can jump straight to soft/mushies. I'm really excited..actually I'm so excited I feel kinda directionless. food, PEOPLE! I GET TO START EATING FOOD!!!! OMG, I kinda don't know what to do with myself!! *happy dance* oh and ps: they were thrilled with my weight loss of 27lbs in 14 days, and said they could already see it! WOOHOOOO!

Hahaha I was doing the same thing at work..I would look at recipes and drool.http://youtu.be/SPrLp-6Nmos this commercial sums up how I feel LOL.

I had surgery yesterday & my period had started on Sat. Figures right?! You'll get nice mesh panties & some maxi pads. Gross, but trust me you won't care!

Yep! I also had the runs for 3 days & that certainly didn't help! I was in my post-op for 3+ weeks because insurance took so long. Good news is I'm down 10.5 in 6 days and 25.5 overall ????

I was told only Tylenol. Forever!

That's exactly how I feel! Physically, I'm not hungry, but I don't feel well. I feel malnourished and I feel like my body is screaming "EAT SOMETHING, I'M SLOWLY DYING!" This full liquids phase has been really hard on me, after spending 2 weeks pre op on basically the same diet. I'm ready for some real food, even if it's baby food texture.

I was told only Tylenol. Forever!

Tomorrow is a week post-op for me & I've pin'd every recipe that sounds good on my private sleeve board!!! I just want something to eat. Anything!

I was told only Tylenol. Forever!

I did on the pain meds & I have had a fever on and off again since I came home so yes, I feel ya! I am just taking Tylenol here and there now. Feel better!

I am getting discharged this morning working on finishing my yogurt and shake for breakfast! My 8 year old son us anxious for his mom to come home! It'll be nice to finish recovering in my own bed although I will miss taking walks around the hospital at 2am!

Approved today & going in 10/28!
