2 1/2 weeks post op
Feb 19, 2007
I am 2 1/2 weeks post op and feeling pretty good. I must admit, the first couple weeks were very hard. The hardest part for me was the emotional stuff. I mourned food, I felt like I was never going to be normal again and I really got myself into a rut. Each day now it gets a little easier. I just got my staples out yesterday and that feels much better. Although I have a rash on my stomach from a band-aid I had put on the top of my incision. That itchy thing is my biggest problem right now. I'm still eating full liquid, pureed food. I will be doing this for another week or so before I start initiating soft foods. I'm a little bummed about my weight loss. I have lost 18 1/2 pounds since surgery. I know that is probably good but I see others that have lost much more. Well, must go. Thanks for reading.
