Hey guys. I had Surgery yesterday morning and everything went extremely well. I wasn't nauseous so that was a plus. I didn't get discharged around 4pm today. I had an hour ride home and my friend drove me home. The car ride home sucked. I'm still really sore but other than that I'm doing great!!

Thanks, everyone!!! I wanna try really hard to meet my 64 ounces goal today. I'm not as sore today as I was yesterday. I feel better when I lay down...

Congrats. So happy for you. Everything you went through motivated me because I have had some obstacles and felt like giving up. But I know I have to fight for this and not give in. I know it was worth going through once you are done with surgery and on your way. Congrats once again.

Thanks @gingerbelle! I'm so glad I could motivate someone! It was so incredibly stressful going through the whole process and it's so crazy just know that the actual surgery is finally over! Now, it's all up to me! Exciting! But scary! I'm ready for this journey. I've almost survived week 1. My first post-op appointment is Tuesday. Don't give up!

I'm going to my 3 month post-op appointment next week. I vaguely remember the first weeks of special foods and diets. I am able to eat most everything on eligible food lists. I love being able to have a taste (bite) of well seasoned and flavorful foods. This was so much worth it. Can't wait to tell the Psychiatrist (psych Eval) that I am happy! He said surgery wouldn't make me happy!!!
