My recovery has been okay- the first 2 days at home I was in so much pain, but lately I have been doing mild housework, and have been running errands like going to the bank.. And then I lie down because I start to feel pain again. So I try to get some walking in- but I'll tell you, I'm sick of clear fluids now lol

Your weight is simular to mine.....I'm just amazed with 36 lbs so quickly. What is your goal weight? How tall are you?

My surgery is not until May 24th.

My goal weight is 138, but idk if that's ideal. I'm 5'5&3/4".. It's easy to lose the weight of you stick to the clear diet and walk a lot. Good luck to you on your surgery!!!

I was thinking I would shoot for 140, I'm 5' 5" also.

Anytime you think of some info that may aide me in my journey please message me.... I want to hear the good and the bad.

Did you ever think after surgery "oh crap what did I just do to myself" lol

All the time! But I have to accept the decision I made.. Just sometimes I forget I had the surgery done, like in the morning, mostly- and I start drinking normally. I get 3 gulps in and have to remind my self to stop. It a work in progress.

Cat.jackson89..how are you doing with your post op now that a few days have past?

Are you having pureed food now or have you moved on to real food I'm just curious how things are going for you?

I'm doing great! I have some pain when I bend over, but I've been limiting my bending as much as possible. I did get moved up to the puréed phase last week, and it definitely slows the weight loss, but I'm still losing
