I had my 1-week postop visit with my surgeon today and this has to be one of the happiest days in a long time!!! I'm down 27 pounds since Oct 31 and 10 pounds since surgery on Nov 12!!!! I was still on full liquids when I went in and he said since I have had no nausea or vomiting, I can advance to very soft!!!!! I get to skip puréed and I am stoked about that. I dreaded that phase more than anything! I've had a huge smile on my face since 3 o'clock!!!! Best decision ever to do the surgery!

Aaawww yahh that's awesome... Just be careful... I'm only 3days post op and glade I'm on full liquids but for three weeks:/

Way to go. So jealous. Lost a whole 3 lbs..very discouraged. Not a good start. Need to change my attitude..

I am being very careful advancing my diet. I'm doing everything I can to avoid the pain from food/liquid. I went shopping this afternoon since I only had cream Soups and got a lot of noodle soups and had for dinner. Felt so good to chew even if I did look like a toothless cow!!!

Be sure to keep your head up about your weight loss. I had 160-170 pounds to lose, so it will come off faster depending on the amount you need to lose. You can do it!!!
