1st post op doctor appt, stats etc

So I'm 8 days out from my surgery an had my first doc appt. I was healing up fine up until last night . I think I moved wrong and now a part of my stomach feels like its on fire. The doc said if it continues to hurt see him again. Anyways! In 8 days I've lost 25lbs which is a lot! That's insane and really shocking but I'm glad something is happening considering I always hear about a 3rd wk stall, maybe this makes up for it lol. The surgeon also said I can start eating cottage cheese, yogurt, cream of wheat etc. I'm so excited to try to get my protein from food instead of gross shakes!!

25 pounds in 8 days? That's amazing! Congrats. Hope your tummy feels better though probably just pulled some scars the wrong way

Great job!! I am just in the beginning stages - and have my appointment the end if July-

I am a planner and this helps me so much!!

Keep working hard and the biggest rate of scar tissue growth is the first 3 weeks of surgery -

I bet you just pulled something-

Please make sure you call if it doesn't feel right!!
