Hello Vsg Family

Hi everyone,

I had my surgery on Monday 2/20/12 and today I am 13 lbs down. 10 lbs of that is losing all the fluid after surgery, but I'll take it ; ). Today I feel great, no pain, no nausea, no discomfort. I think I'm going to go do my walking on the beach today! I am having a very hard time getting all my fluids in but I know it will come.

I feel so lucky to have you and this forum. To be able to talk to people who know EXACTLY what you're going through is priceless. I will check in again week two!
