where I'm at

Hello everyone! I'm currently six days out of gastric bypass surgery. I'm doing well but it has been very, very challenging every step of the way. So far I have lost14lbs in six days. I'm feeling stronger everyday but still in alot of pain from one particular group of stitches that pull very hard every time I move. They say they are internal ones that should "pop" soon as they dissolve, I'm not sure if I should be excited for the pop or scared!Lol! I have done excellent mentally staying positive and not getting overwhelmed so I'm very happy about that since the nurses warned me that the first day at home I may be a crying mess like alot of others.Anyway I'm looking for some support from other people going threw the same thing or that have advice from their experience. After three weeks of this clear liquid diet I'd love any ideas of something new I can have that I haven't thought of.
