Life is good on the bench!

May 10, 2012

So I had my VSG a week ago yesterday.  At my one week follow-up the nurse told me all is going according to plan.  I have lost 25 lbs in under 3 weeks!

I am eating the suggested diet, finally got 60g protein in yesterday, worked on Monday for about 4 hours (tiring), and a lunch meeting at a restaurant, went grocery shopping (with help with the bags), and I am even cooking dinner for my family again.  Life is pretty much back to normal.

Having a bit of a new pain today so I called the centre - waiting to hear back.

Amazing how for the last 5/6 months all I have thought about day in and day out - was getting my surgery and preparing for it.  Now that it is over, other things in my life actually occupy my thoughts!  It is nice to have something else to think about and prepare for!  I bet my family is glad to have me back!

The recouperation was not easy - in fact, there was a day that I thought I wouldn't go through with the switch part in a year - but that has moved on and I can't wait to be much healthier when that time comes!

Take care -

Ann
