Sorry that I've been out of touch for a while, but I don't have a laptop, and my Mother does not have a computer. After my one week post-op doctor's appointment, I went to visit her and to convalesce. I was weaker than I expected, but I am doing pretty well now. I was supposed to switch to puree diet two weeks post-op, but pureeing seemed nasty, so in two days I advanced to a soft diet. So far everything is going well except for some occasional heartburn. Nothing ever came back up. After two weeks, I traveled a bit more to visit other family, and then came home Friday. Pounds are coming off at a good rate. I'm already over one third of the way to my goal. Hope y'all are doing well.

Welcome back, and already 1/3 to goal, WOWZER. Huge gratz on that. Take care and best of luck.
