Hi Rach! Welcome! I don't have any pics yet, but I'm two weeks post op today. The last time I weighed was at my two-week pre-op appt (so four weeks ago) and since then I have lost 31lb.

My hospital stay was two days and I was able to start walking about 8 hours after surgery. I was in a lot of gas pain when I woke up and my belly seemed to be pulling on my incisions. I told the nurse ad she got me an abdominal binder which helped A LOT! I'm still wearing it now, actually.

I'm still sore, tough to bend, sit down and stand up but otherwise doing well. I started puréed foods today and the few things I've tried have all gone down just fine. Heading back to work tomorrow!

If you have any questions along the way, feel free to MSG me. Good luck!
