Hello,

I'm doing really good. Approaching 2 weeks post op on the 18th. Healing well and no pain. It has been hard staying on clear liquids since January 1st (from Jan 1-5 I had pre-op diet on clear liquids), but it will be worth it. I will be starting pureed phase in the next couple days. I have lost 12 lbs since surgery and 30 total from my highest weight (240) since December 1st. I'm feeling really good and excited to be starting pureed veggies with broth/creme soon.

You can do it!!! Just stay focused on your end goal.

I downloaded a cool app on apple store called "Happy Scale" and track my weight loss progress there...It gave the the ability to break up my total desired pounds to lose into 10 mini goals and it is very motivating to see how you achieve one...rather than only think about the ultimate long term goal.

How are you doing Rose. I'm booked for a sleeve on the 18th of Jan. coming soon
