 Had my post op today and was thrilled - I lost 7 lbs.!  Woo Hoo! 

Got the drain taken out today!  Yeah, can't wait to sleep tonight on my side!  I know I'll get better each day now!

Still on liquid for 5 more days.  Can't wait for my first scrambled egg!

Surgery Jan 16.  Estimated return to work Feb 16.  

Pre-op weight:  219.  Post op weight:  212.  Goal weight:  136.  76 lbs to go!

I am in the same boat as you and I must admitt I feel your excitement.  I too cannot wait to wrap my lips around something solid.  Congratulations.

So pleased for you, and a bit jealous. I was sleeved on the 13th, went home on the 15th and I am barely down any weight.  I cant stand to eat anything either so it is really tough.  Excellent job though!

Could not sleep on the side where the drain came out --too tender yet. Managed to sleep on other side with a body pillow next to me to support tummy. Mostly still on back.
