Hi everyone and I want to Thank everyone for the words of encouragement!! It has been 2 weeks and I am getting better, no complications. It is difficult to get the water in, but I keep trying. I do have a pain mid abdomen that is annoying, some times hurts pretty bad. I am having that checked out Monday. I was started on Pepcid Friday for it. I have advanced from liquids to soft protein, yogart, cottage cheese, string cheese, cheese, refried beans, & soft egg.I tried the yogart loved it before surgery can't do it now. The Taco Bell refried beans, no sauce, and cheese was pretty good. The string cheese is great. I can only eat about half of the cheese, I can get most of a poached egg down. And I have lost 40 lbs. in 2 weeks. YEAH!!! Thanks Again for the support, I love this site, Bonnie

Hi Bonnie! Congrats on having your surgery! Let the weight loss begin!! I bet you feel relieved now. It's over and now you are on the other side and can join the ranks of the losers. Welcome, my friend!!! Happy RE-Birthday to you! From this day forward you life will change forever. Just try to take it easy and remember to sip, walk, deep breathe and cough. Take those pain pills and splint the tummy! These first few days are rough, but I assure you they get better with each passing day. Some days those emotions will resurface and try to get the best of you, but just remember what you’ve been through to get this far! I’m sure you’ll be proud of what you’ve accomplished!! You know you can always come here and get a dose of confidence and good will! We will still be here to support you and cheer you on as the pounds come off! I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you today and that you are in my thoughts and prayers for an uncomplicated, swift recovery. You are an official loser!! Wishing you much success in your weight-loss journey. Today you burst out of that cocoon and become a beautiful butterfly! Tomorrow you’ll spread those wings and embark on a wonderful journey!
