5 Days Post Op....
Hey everyone I figured I would write another blog I am alittle bored. So I just started back to my protein shakes yesterday yay!!! I was so excited to have some kind of substance in my new pouch lol. Although it drives me crazy when I am around people that are eating an actual meal...ugh. I will get through this I just keep telling myself that the next couple of weeks are the hardest and then it will get better!

So some of my steri strips are falling off and you can hardly see any of the incisions which is a good thing, although I dont plan on showing off my stomach anytime! I dont know about some of you guys but the incisions itch like crazy because they are healing. My stomach is a little tender, but I cant belive that I was hardly in any pain!

Alright I am gonna get outta here, but I will be back Monday! Monday is my 1st post op appt.! Thanks for listening!!!

Hey you, congrats on becoming a LOSER!! I'm glad that you are feeling pretty good. I'm sure the "watching people eat real food" will become easier. Take care.
