First post-op appointment
Feb 04, 2010
Had my first post-op appointment with Dr. Peters. It went very well. He said I looked great and was very proud of me, so that made me feel good. I lost the weight I gained from the hospital plus some. When I returned home from the hospital I weighted 286 and I am down to 259. I feel lighter already. I get to start eating food, real food. I will be trying an egg first and let me tell you an egg never sounded so good. The staples were a breeze getting removed. I was so nervous about the tube because the drains hurt so much coming out, well they were not the same. The tube coming out I felt nothing so I was worried for no reason. I really feel so good that I could run a marathon. I know in a couple weeks I may slide into a funk, but I hope if I keep busy and not focus on it that I will not become depressed. I figure if I am outside or doing something with my kids it wont give me time to slide myself into any funk. My surgeon said that in all his years of surgery not many people smile at his after 2 days post-op (which I did), most people usually hate him for about 4 days lol. I really feel great and back to normal almost. I hope I remain feeling this good!!
