1 Month post op
Aug 14, 2012
As of today, I am one month post op and down 26 Lbs since surgery, four and a half for the last week and a total of 83 Lbs since December 15, 2011. Also, today I started jogging during my daily walk. I am using 10K app for my iphone and ran for 60 seconds and walked for 90 seconds over 35 minutes. It felt good and I hope to continue. I also officially start my soft stage diet today even though I have been eating soft foods for the last 10 days with no problems.

2 weeks post op
Jul 31, 2012
At my two week surgeriversity, I have now lost 14 Lbs. I am currently at 346.4 Lbs and can say that I haven't been this low in over 10 years. Recovery has been good with little to no pain at this time. I am eating about 500-550 calories a day with an average of 60 to 65 grams of protein. That is low for what the nutritionist wants me to eat but I just can't at this time.
