Crazyness, I have lost 14pds since my op on Wednesday July 8th. I feel so good today, went back to work and I feel almost 90% back LOL yes 90% cause I am still climbing the hill. Little inconfort in the right down side of my belly but everyone says its normal! It will go away! I am healing pretty good too... I will be able to stake the strips off Wednesday (I cant wait they are so itchy)....
I am so proud of myself! I can't believe I have made myself this great gift of life!!!
