My surgery went ok. I was released without any pain meds and had to be admitted to a diff hospital later cuz I Eason such severe pain. I'm ok now tho. 25 lbs down! Last three days have stayed at same weight which is frustrating to me. And I don't have enough time in my day to get all my liquids but I sure am trying. Thanks for checking on me!

You're welcome. I'm glad that all is now going well. Everyones body is different so try not to get frustrated. It will melt away before you know it
