Ok, so now its done. That's right. Surgery on the 16th, home on the 19th and I'm drinking my first protein shake that I made. Actually, it's pretty good.
Surgery went well. The nausea after was a bit much to deal with but it subsided late in the evening of the 16th. Days 2-4 have been great. Not hungry at all. Mom is here making sure I'm getting enough fluids in and I'm really trying. I've been pretty quiet about this surgery as it is my own personal journey and didn't want all the questions that come with an important decision such as this. It should be interesting to see reactions as the pounds melt off and I become the person that I want to be, both for myself and my son.
I've read alot of these and there are many that have the first couple of days documented then they kind of disappear. I don't want to be like that. I think it would have been useful if more people had written more about how their lives were changing over the next couple of months. So.... if your like me... You want to see more and I want to be the one to share this journey.
