Monday's are weigh in days and never thought I'd look forward to Monday's but I do. I can't wait to see the scale lowering.
Today I lost another 4 lbs and 2 inches.
TOTAL since surgery 15 lbs and 5.5 inches. (13 days)
I am pleased. I have my first follow up appointment since surgery on Thursday so another weigh in again this week for me!!!

1 Week after Surgery
First week after surgery had it's ups and downs. Mostly ups. Had issues drinking the required 48 oz per day. Had gas bubbles inside of my shoulder and stomach for 3-4 days. That was very painful.
Walked on treadmill a couple of days.
Had a few visitors come by and bring Mike some dinner and visit with me.
My first official weigh in after surgery was on Monday, August 4th
I LOST 11 LBS in 6 days. I was so excited. Keep in mind I lost 20 lbs prior to surgery so now I'm at 31lbs.
Here are some pictures of me hours before surgery.
Waiting for the doctor to do his thing!!!!

Day 3 after surgery
Wow...what a journey. Hospital had some issues. They forgot to tell Mike where I was (what room) so I had my surgery at 530pm and Mike didn't get to see me until 10pm that night. He was VERY mad to say the least.
I'm a little sore but no pain medicine. I had to experience the horrible gas bubbles in my chest and shoulders.
They felt like labor pains.
I've been walking every day. Yesterday up/down the street a few times and today I've been on treadmill 3 times 5 min each time.
My stomach is still swollen but looks pretty good. I have 4 holes.
I am struggling trying to get my liquids in me. I need to be drinking 48 oz a day. Thursday I got 20 oz and so far today I've got 28 oz. Not easy.
Thanks for your support. Weight in on Mondays. So looking forward to that number going down, down.
