Hi everyone. I just had my one month checkup post op and everything is going well. My blood pressure is down and doc is weaning me off meds. I am down thirty pounds in the month since surgery and 60 down from my highest ever. I am eating most foods as long as they're soft and I chew chew chew. I am at about 500 calories per day. I have been getting my liquids but that is sometimes hard. I felt pretty dehydrated yesterday!

My biggest complaints are acid reflux and occasional exhaustion. The acid is mostly controlled by dexilant. Sometimes I feel great and sometimes I feel like I can barely move. The great times are awesome! The exhausted times I just get through.

I am walking and riding a bike plus moving around a lot doing yard work, swimming in the backyard and general putting around. I can increase excersize in two weeks. I plan on painting my house then.

Best to all!

start slow with the painting,ok? just like with food, small bites and chew them (work them) well.

sounds like you are right on track!
