My 2 week post op check up

Tomorrow it will officially be 2 weeks from my gastric sleeve surgery.
Saw my surgeon today. Since my initial meeting with him earlier in the summer (June), I was 224 lbs. I am now 209. I didn't lose a whole lot during the pre op diet as he was not super strict about it like he is with the post op diet. Still on full liquids. BP was low, 96 over something (can't remember), probably because I am not getting all my fluids in.
It was an outpatient procedure so I asked why I never had a swallow test to see if there were leaks. He said I did, but I was asleep. Knock on wood, he's never had any leaks. That was good to hear.
Another week of full liquids until I graduate to puréed foods. I feel pretty good. Less depressed than I was this past weekend. I helped my 9 year old with his homework and scooted out of the kitchen when my husband served him a bowl of Pasta for dinner.
That's about it. I still feel low on energy.
Hope everyone is doing well and had a good day.
