Woke up feeling great! Did a three mile walk video (Leslie Sansone, not too strenuous), getting in lots of liquids already, clothes starting to fit more loosely (still need to lose more before I'm out of them, though), and finally, finally, finally...the scale moved! I showed a gain for a few days post op, then down a few ounces, now finally down 6 lbs since surgery. Thankfully, I had been reading OH about people having this same trajectory so I didn't panic, although I did measure myself and was noticing the decreases, which was nice. Oh, and I haven't been hungry yet. Don't know what that means but it makes the clear liquids easier to swallow (ha ha).

Basically, I'm just elated to be feeling this great post op! You never know how it will work out for you but so far, so good.
Mom to 8, looking forward to a healthy future!

You are doing so great! Heck, I was in the ER a week post op and it seems already like a distant memory, and def all worth it! Glad to hear all is well! Keep going, girl! I confess I really need to be consistent with my exercise! Still a bit tired but hopefully have labs at my 8 wk check up on Monday.

Bet the kids are so glad to have you home!

Congratulations, so glad that you are doing well.  Isn't it the best thing you have ever done for yourself?  Keep up the good work and keep rockin' that sleeve!
