I got home yesterday and continue to do well. It is so strange not being hungry. I have to work on drinking. It's easy for me to forget to sip for some reason. I am having to watch myself so I do not over do it. I did a bunch of errands today and it was probably a bit too much. I have told a lot of people now that the surgery has been done. A few negative comments but more out of ignorance that meanness. I had one person tell me that my stomach will grow back. Umm no. Yes it can stretch but not to the size it was.
I haven't gotten on the scale yet as I wanted to give me some time to shed the fluids they pump into me.
