Hey there guys. Had the surgery yesterday at about 8AM and according to my wife I was in a great amount of pain. By the time I slept a bit and woke up later in the afternoon I felt pretty good. Was up walking laps by 6PM. Felt better every hour and was discharged at 1PM today. I have the On-Q pump so that helps a bunch I think.

Now just to follow the doctors orders and stick to my diet and beat this thing and use the "tool" for what it is.

Thanks for all your well wishes.

I'm almost one week post op. I was scared too but it really wasn't too bad. I still have a little soreness but for the most part feeling great and my blood sugar levels are the lowest they've been in years!

One week in and I am feeling pretty good. I have had my rough moments with the family eating some of my favorite foods but I know I can't eat it and if I could I would hate myself anyway after. This has been a somewhat emotional roller coaster but I am loving the ride. Shirts are fitting better than they have in ages and I am looking forward to next Monday for my 2 week post-op visit. Can't wait to see the progress I have made numbers wise. I know I feel it in my body. Full liquids can be rough but I can see puréed right around the corner and solids is next. Right now I am just craving
Good healthy Proteins. I want salmon and chicken so bad. Does anyone know how bad steak is on our new tummies? I am badly wanting a fillet mignon. Anyway I feel like I am rambling. I hope everyone is doing fantastic. This new life is a gift.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
