6 days out and feeling good

Rate this Entry
Hi all. Today marks day six since surgery and I am feeling good. The first three days were awful because I could not keep anything down and I was starting to doubt my decision. The vomiting has since passed and the pain is and has been minimal (thank goodness). I am already down 12 pounds and I go back for my post op appointment next Tuesday. I am no longer doubting my decision to have the surgery.
The most difficult thing for me is getting the required amount of water in. But, I know that if I keep working at it, I will succeed.

    Congratulations! I am 9 days out and I feel pretty good too. I am going to my one week appt. today and I started soft foods 2 days ago and I haven't had any problems. I still have the bubbles especially if I drink too fast but otherwise they are almost gone too. I didn't throw up at all so I guess I have been lucky. I've already lost 18 lbs and I am looking forward to more! Good luck!

    I am now 12 days out and still feeling good, other than the pain when I drink or eat too much/too fast. I am down 13 according to the doctor today (first post-op appointment). Not too bad!

    Good luck and Merry Christmas,
