I had RNY on 11/14. So I followed up with my PCP. I am no longer on BP or cholesterol medication and I'm down 21 pounds. That's pretty dang good for 16 days. I'm doing ok getting the fluids in but Protein is another story. I'm using powder mixes now but Friday I'm going to try some Premier Protein and see how that goes. Just wanted to give a little update on my progress.

I just had my procedure on Monday came home last night. I still can't believe I actually did it! Those two weeks will go by fast and it'll be here before you know!

I had surgery last Monday 11/14/2016, doing great so far. I'm down 15 pounds already. I did have a dumping episode today. I drank my shake to fast. I won't do that again! I start the puréed stage tomorrow and I'm so excited! 3 weeks of liquid diet is enough. I drove to the grocery store today, that was good. No problems with that either. I still get tired easy but I guess that's expected a week out. My husband has been great thru all this. He took very good care of me the first few days. He still fusses if he thinks I'm doing to much.
Just wanted to do a little update. Everyone have a blessed week. Happy Thanksgiving!!

Fage yogurt with Torani sugar free pumpkin pie spice! It was so good! Just like having pie with cool whip. Can't wait to try the other flavors.

I had my bypass Monday. Came home last night with a drain. Everything is going well.

Went this afternoon to have the drain removed. Down 8 pounds since surgery on 11/14. Start puréed stage Tuesday and go back in 3 weeks. Now for this soreness to go away I'll be a happy camper!!!

I've been doing some research and I've heard people recommending these strips for the gas pain. I know walking is the key but has anyone tried these? I plan on walking but if these help also it would be good. I'm on board for Monday the 14th. I have to be at the hospital at 5 AM! Spending the weekend getting everything in order. I will be on full liquids when I get home for the first week. Then puréed stage for the second week, soft foods for weeks two and three. I'm so excited for this new journey in my life.
