Hi, I had my operation Monday morning and have been back home since Thursday. Doing pretty well. No bad pain, haven't vomited or felt nauseated, walking a bit more every day. Still want a nap most days.

It's quite an adjustment. I'm never hungry. During my scheduled meals I'm averaging 2 oz. of food down in about 25 minutes.

Congratulations your sergury was successful

I'm happy to hear that you are doing well no pain you are walking and getting some food down.

Keep up the good work .

So far I've met with Katlen, NUT, and I atended class 1 . I appt to meet with phyotheapist in December, so everything is moving along pretty fast. I'm having a problem with is sticking to a diet plan, I would like to lose 10-15 lbs before the sergury. My fitness pal is not working for me . I need more structure . Maybe I should go back to Weight Watchers I had some success with them in the pass. Nut said as long as I don't gain weight I will be ok. Thanks for the reply.

Take good care.

Hi Ignatius, how's everything going with you? Just checking on your progress.

Hope all is well.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Just had my surgery on 11/16 at Northwestern with Dr Jeffrey Fronza. He and his team have been fantastic through the whole process. Highly recommend him.
