My First Post OP Appt: on September 16, 2010 4:34 pm
Today was my first appt. after surgery
Their records have me down 23 lbs since surgery. Who can complain!!! They remove my staples. Didn't hurt at all :) They replaced them with some type of strip band aid...they said they would fall off on their own Then we went downstairs to nutrionist. For the next 2 weeks I will be on Full liquids, rather then the clear liquids Ive been on since before surgery, I was :( that I am not to puree diet yet but I am thankful for any new add ons.... Broth was so blah.... The item I am excited about that she said I could have is All juices as long as they are less then 15 g of sugar. Even orange juice once a day :) Just no pulp in any I am also now allowed all the sugar free pudding one girl could want ....LOL even coffee con leche made decafinated with skim milk and splenda!!!! not to mention my protein shakes. I got them in vanilla and can use any sugar free syrup she showed me a site that sells every flavor under the sun!!! i can also use hersheys sugar free chocolate syrup and strawberry..... Soups are still pretty blah to me cause they have to be strained. I am not allowed any pieces or chunks of anything..not even pulp in the juices.....and low fat Soups allowed cream of chicken , mushroom,broccoli or tomato i am also allowed baby food fruits as long as they are low sugar she said to start with apple, banana I can also now have sugar free gum So still no real food but a big enough chance to make me happy. I have been cleared for walking slow on my treadmill....now they watch for blood clots... and I have to wait 6 weeks for my pool :( Big Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
But all and all
I am a very happy camper

Had My Surgery 9/08/10 :) on September 13, 2010 11:06 am
Well I am very happy to report that I finally had my surgery on Wed Sept 8, 2010 with Dr. Sosa.
I will say that 5 days out and it was totally worth it. The first day right after surgery was hard but nothing extreme.
The next morning I was already feeling much better. In fact right after the recovery room physical therapy
came to get me out of bed. It felt great to be up and on the road to recovery..Though yes I was asking for my meds!!
Friday when I came home I felt really good and happy. Really only had the soreness from the staples.
Again not too bad.
Today is Monday after my surgery and I am already down 23 pounds from my heighest and 15 from the surgery.
I am a very happy camper. I am still on clear liquid diet. Look forward to any added items since I have been doing this
9 days now. Broth, Jello , SF Pops, Crystal Light. My brain needs something new :) Mind you I say my brain cause my new tummy feels full all the time. I have all I can do to get in the vitamins and proteins and water.
I am still sore...Staples come out this Thursday. Hope by then I feel less soreness. Also I pray staples being removed dont hurt. I am a chicken!!!
All and All I can already say I am very happy. Wish I would of been able to find a way to do it sooner. I wasted so many years of my life being unhappy and miserable. Ready to make up for them all :)
Thank You Dr. Sosa :) I know you are not very talkative but I just hope you know how happy you are making us!!!!
You've earned your wings for sure!!!
Jenny
