22 lbs

 Hey yall, I went to my doc appointment today and I have lost 22 lbs and I am excited about that! He says I am healing far better than he expected and that I can eat soft foods! 

I am grateful for all of my OH family! Thank you for all you support, concern, love, and prayers! 

Dang girl! 22 pounds all this week?? GO GIRL!!!

I lost 23 pounds including my preop of 9 and after has been 14 so far.

 I was shocked myself!!!!!! We he told me I was like wow, and couldnt stop smiling!

22 pounds in 9 days is almost 2 and a half pounds a day! You're on fire!!!!

 I am happy I am!!!! I cant remember when I lost 5 lbs in 1 week! 

Shucks girl you are rocking your sleeve too! We can actually do this!

Did you lose anything during your preop diet?

Girl what the heck have you been doing? I got to get on your plan! We were both at -8 pounds on Friday! I am happy with my 14 pounds though. I don't even know how I managed that but I am truly shocked at 22 pounds in 1 week. Seriously! 

Nothing really! I walk around a lot but I really dont know what is going on but I say keep it coming!!!!!

Heck yeah! I haven't been walking around much. I am going to start on my treadmill tomorrow and go like crazy! So you've just been doing protein shakes, water/crystal light and broth all week? I'm so excited for you!

 Yes. That's it. I cant do much more than that. My doc put me on soft foods today so we will see how that goes. I tried to eat a lil tuna and only could eat 2 spoons and was over stuffed. He also told me I can go to the gym now as well just no heavy lifting or strenuous stomach exercises until 6 weeks

Congratulations! Here's too many more to come as well!
