1 week post op went well. 21 lbs gone this week (which just shocks me) and 41 total since I started the 2 week liver diet. Incisions are healing good. Can start walking more too.

I want to thank everyone on OH for sharing your stories, tips and the supportive comments. This site and you fantabulous people helped get me informed. I knew what to expect at every moment through the process. I look forward to more and just hope that I can inspire people like many have inspired me!

On to full liquids!

Amazing Tink!!! I would love to see such a weight loss my first week out. I will weigh myself Wednesday. I start full fluids Thursday. What are you going to try first?

21 lbs is amazing!!! I remember my first week out I lost 16lbs and a friend said "ohhhhh that's only water weight though". She totally made me feel bad and I felt shut down. I later thought "that biatch was just effin jealous".....LOL

From that moment on.....I said to myself...."hey, a pound is a pound and the scale moved". Don't listen to any negatives. You'll encounter some weird reactions from people along the way. Let it roll right off.

Congrats on your first week post op. The VSG is truly amazing!

aloha,

michelle

First, grats Tink. I am so happy for you. Now I have to put you in the proper pecking order. 8P I too was on the two week pre-op diet. In those two weeks I lost 30 pounds, I am now post op 20 days, and I have lost another 30 pounds for a total of 60 pounds. Pffffffft. Sorry, I couldn't resist. Again I am so happy for you, I remember how nervous you were as the days leading to your surgery was counting down. It sounds like you are well on your way to your goals.
