My first post....Surgery Jan 6th

I had my surgery Monday Jn. 6th - I came home today and I'm surprised how good I feel. Just wanted to share because I know I had some fear and if this reassures anyone that's a good thing! Now the fun. Engines as I figure my food plan out.

Wow, congrats and good luck! Keep us updated on your progress please.

Today is day 3 post surgery. I got to start full liquids! Yay! Had yogurt for breakfast, about 2 oz protein shake for lunch and some really yummy potato soup that I put thru the blender for dinner. I have pain in my left side, which I understand is normal. My BP was a little high this morning, but my meds got changed after the surgery and I doubt they are in my system good. All in all, I think I am doing pretty good. I haven't gotten all my fluids in today. The eating in between has thrown me off. I will concentrate on liquids this evening and do better tomorrow. When does the weight loss start? Lol! I know I am not eating much and just seems the scale would start moving a little!

Congrats and welcome to post open side! So exciting!

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I'm still trying to figure this site out. Can someone tell me how to set the ticker up?

I am closing out my first week post up nd it has mostly been successful. I am able to et without problems and I've found if I plan my day out. Factoring in a minimum of my 60 grams of Protein and set my 64 oz of Water out it helps me reach the two most important goals of the day.

For me with iPad, under My Surgery, you will see hour screen eg. My name "Hi Kata13". Click on that and you will see ticker as an option.

If you are on a computer you go up to your user name in the upper right corner and hit the settings button (looks like a gear) and in that drop down menu it has a My TIckers button
