First post op appointment

May 23, 2012

1 May 2012- Was down 10 lbs at my one week post-op Dr Appointment today which is actually 25 lbs down from my very first Appointment on 6 March when I first started seeking information on bariatric surgery.  I’m thrilled to say the least just because I feel this is finally the “tool” I’ve been needing in order to not only obtain weight loss but maintain the weight loss once it happens.  My incision areas are still bruised and tender but are also itching so I know they are healing right up.  I already started using “Scar Zone” cream on all the incisions because it seemed to really help minimize the scaring after my knee surgeries.  My energy level is almost fully restored and just in time since I head back to work tomorrow.     The challenge now is to drink all my fluids, get in all my protein and remember to stop drinking anything 30 minutes before I eat anything.  And on that note I am eating things like cream of chicken soup, applesauce,  and scrambled eggs with no problems but I don’t think I am really ready to try much more yet even thought I was given the green light to try a few more things.
