Three weeks ago I weighed 263...I did the 2 week pre-op liquid diet and lost 10lbs and had my surgery one week ago today (7/19/10) I now weigh 242.... wow I never thought it was gonna happen.. I have been over 200 for the last few years and depression has been taking over my life. I couldnt excercise because I was tired I was tired because I wasnt excercising. You know the story. So I had my Vertical Sleeve Surgery at Sharp Memorial with Dr. Mueller (whom is awesome by the way) I stayed 2 nights because I wasnt doin too great the next day I had the hardest time getting out of bed and walking... the third day it was fine... I went home and only took Rx Pain meds for 2 days and then the 5th day I only took tylenol and since then I havent taken any pain meds at all... just the suggested Tums...so I am blessed because I am doing great.. I walked and got tired and stopped. I have been actually eating soup fine.. no problems there. You never think you will be excited to eat cream of anything...man it was goooooood!!!
I look forward to mashed potatoes... then again here I go thinking about food...but I know I have changed because I know I can only handle a tiny bit of anything. I can feel the difference.
