I cant tolerate much especially at night, and meats dont agree with me!!! I've been still trying to eat soups and much as i can, but i do eat everything else but it usually comes right back up!! I'm down 2 or 3 pants sizes it depends and i can already tell a difference!! Maybe im pushing it but im waiting for more to come off and i cant wait!!!

Sep 07, 2008
Well I'm finially done and I'm in a lot of pain!!!! I went in Thursday morning at 830 and got into surgery at about 1:00 surgery took 4 hours and i was in recovery for about 2 1/2 hours I then got to see my family at around 8:30 or so!!! The pressure in my chest hurt so bad from them putting the air in to see everything!!! They took the iv's and everything out friday afternoon and i demanded to go home saturday, I hated staying in the hospital and i was in enough pain that being there wasnt helping!!! I'm able to walk around and do some things but i cant hold my son much and that really is upsetting, I miss holding him and caring for him like i use to, but i know with time i will be up and ready to go again!!! I havent been drinking much just water popsicles and broth for right now and it still hurts to swallow!!! I'm down 15 pounds so far since my liquid diet and surgery and cant wait to loose more!!! I go back to the docotors on friday cant wait to see if i loose any more this week!!! Well ill keep you all posted and thanks for the support!!!!
