First post-op visit today :)
Just had a great 3-week post op visit with my surgeon and nutritionist. Down 27 pounds from last visit, 22 from surgery. Down 37 pounds from the start of the pre-op diet 5 weeks ago. Suspending diabetes and hypertension medication (hopefully to never start again!!). I'm the lightest I've been in at least 5 years. Healing well, working out. Feeling good, looking good, kicking butt and taking names!!
Still working on getting fluids and vitamins in but my nutritionist says I'm where I'm supposed to be and as long as I keep trying, that's the key.
Today was a happy day! I hope it was the same for all of you!!

That's great! I'm glad everything is going so well!
I got so nervous before my first (and second) post-op follow ups. I was so worried that he was going to tell me I wasn't losing enough and that I was already failing. But they both went well anyway :P
