3 Weeks and 2 days

Well at my 2 week (+2 day follow-up) I was down to 210 that is officially 20 pound down from my pre-surgery weight.Dr. Schram was happy with that. Barix's seems to be altering their food program a little as they now say that I can go to puree foods for one week and then to soft foods for one week. WOW!!!
I check with the doctor regarding my incision that was still leaking, and he said it was normal, and like someone on the board says it is better out the inside.
I decided that I should really take some time off work, as I did go back to work on the Sunday after my surgery on Monday, I would have been fine but the leaking was bothering me a fair bite. I was self conscious about it and worried that I could get and infection from being around some not too clean places. I am concerned about the financial end of things as I don't have any sick benefits from work but my health is more important really.
Now, I am down to 205 and that is just awesome!!! I have not had any problem with my blood sugars since leaving Barix. I still take my blood pressure medicines though but am hopeful that I will be able to stop them some day in the near future too.
As for foods and water, I believe I am doing very well. I am becoming a little more adventurous with them and processing different things too now. I usually have a protein shake in the morning and unflavored protein to soups and puddings throughout the day.
I am taking my vitamins which include a multi, B12 and calcium with D.
