Monday August 15th, 2011, the day of my RNY surgery. Have been on my physician weight loss program for almost 3 months. Weight this morning was 334 pounds. Been somewhat nervous prior to the surgery.
8-16. Home from surgery. Having difficult time in getting all my fluids in. My wife Judy is trying her best to keep me on track.Isopure taste not as bad as expected. I know it is up to me to make sure of the fluids.
8-17. Began walking outside today up and down my 300 foot driveway ,twice a day. Eating some sugar free pop cycles and jello.
8-20. Went to the local walk track today in am and pm, totaled 1 mile, can you believe it!!
8-22. Attended post-op surgery group discussion. Very informative. They meet once a week.
8-23. First surgeon post-op visit. Things were OK!
8-24. Still walking a mile a day. Trying to get all fluids in
8-26. Started the pureed food ! Still trying to see how can get all the fluid intake in.
8-28/9-1. Developed blister on foot. was unable to do my walking. Being a diabetic, should have known better than to walk without socks on.

Been do-in good, getting fluids in, proteins. Trying to walk at least 30 minutes a day. Only about 700 calories per day for now. It has been a little slow getting back in the grove at work!
First two complications in last couple of weeks. Tried eating a 3 oz well done steak and 4 oz grilled chicken. Agreed with my wife, probably did not chew enough, moisten it to swallow better. Hurt for about 1 1/2 hours with each. Will really have to watch this. Maybe have to put in food processor as did before with soft food.

Dr says do-in really well. Will see him again end of January. Did have slit complication as having to have a fistula repaired
. Do-in OK with this. Current weight is 270 lbs. Contining to walk when possible , 3-4 days a week.
2-22-12
Continue doin fine. Still walk 30 minutes a day when possible. Wt. 235 lbs. Beginning to have reoccuring muscle aches.
