Happy Easter!

Apr 05, 2015

I'm 1 week 2 days post op now. Back on full fluids diet :/ OMG Liquids is a doable diet for a week, maybe 2 but it's been over 3 weeks now and boy am I liquided out! lol I'm down a total of 21 pounds since my pre op weight of 236, 10 pounds since returning home. I'm very happy with the operation, the healing process and life in general :)!

I still have an enterocele (google it) that will need surgery eventually, but I want to be down at LEAST 50 pounds or more before trying that. My gynecologist went in robotically December 31, 2014 to fix the enterocele and said my aorta was too big and back back out of my stomach. When I asked him about WLS, he said that if I had that done and lost a significant amount of weight, he would be happy to go back in and try the repair work. SO, I have 5 long ugly dark purple scars and I still have another surgery to go through......NOT something to look forward to. Esp considering that Dr Kelly made 4 or 5 incisions half the length of my U.S. doctor, and they're healing up with little to no visible scarring. Why is that so difficult for the American doctors to be more considerate of how our skin looks after they're done with surgery? IDK, it's a mystery to me. A mystery that pisses me off and makes me NEVER want to have surgery in the U.S. again! Just venting.

HAPPY EASTER Y'ALL!
