Two Weeks Post Op
Oct 02, 2012
Okay here I am again with an update. I am now 2 weeks post op and I feel great. I still have a little soreness in the left side but that's manageable. I still have in my staples which I think is contributing to the pain but I will have them removed on Thursday. Two days ago I had nausea and throwing up slightly but I still don't know the cause of it because my routine didn't change..some say dumping but I say not possible....but anyway..I only cried once this week and that's when that incident happened. Showers have gotten to be pleasant once again. I'm able to do most things on my own without much help...Still cant bend over or tie my shoes and things like that so still getting help in that area....I have been in a recliner since I came home from the hospital so I really wanted to stretch out because my back was hurting so I did try and lie down which felt really good but when it was time for me to get up... it was horrible and I felt like I pulled something. I was sore the next day at one of my incisions but it's better now I pray. Other than that I am well because God has never left my side.
So now let me get to my process...This week I weigh 445 pounds. As you know I came into this journey at 498, lost 21 pounds before surgery, 470 pounds on date of surgery. This week I have lost 14 pounds. So that's 25 pounds post op / 53 pounds total.
