Nov 28, 2007
Well here I am 1 week out almost to the minute and I jumped on my new scale this morning before work and I am down 14 pounds in the first week. I wish it wasn't so early cause I want to whole world to know.
I know its mostly cause I am on fluids only but still 14 pounds, OMG.

5 Days Out
Nov 27, 2007
Well I have been back to work for 2 days now and I must say I feel fine. My Dr. gave me a prescription for demerol and so far I have only taken 3.5 pills. I can't beleive there isn't more pain.
I have just gone from clear fluids to full fluids and can't wait for real food again. I am making a point of going for a walk every day, whether it be at lunch or after work.
I lost 9 lbs in the pre-op diet and that was a good start to my surgery day. Everything went as planned except the weather. I woke up surgery day to see that we were having freezing rain. I was the first person at the clinic since its about a 4 minute taxi ride from my apartment. I waited for a nurse to arrive to let me in. The weather delayed my surgery about an hour and I was walking out of the clinic to my ride home around 12:30.
Best move of my life I feel

Well here I am writing this with less than 24 hours until my surgery. I have been nervous the last couple of days but seems to have subsided a little today. Just watched the trailer for the movie AWAKE and although I was told by my GF not to I dont think it bothered me too much.
I am looking forward to the new life that is waiting for me in the days, months, years ahead.
Thats all for now
