First post op visit....

I met with my surgeon today and since I started the two week pre-op diet I have lost 23 pounds!  

I am no longer in the "i regret i did this" stage! She talked to me about everything and so far it's all normal. She's happy I"m back on my hormones and doesn't know where the communication broke down there.  I'm continuing the amount of neurontin, which has been cut down by 2/3  since my pain has been decreasing every day from my fibromyalgia.

I am no longer taking insulin since my sugar levels are fine.

I am no longer taking blood pressure meds since my blood pressure is fine.

I'm still using my cpap but will have to go for a study soon since I think it's blowing the air too hard, but hopefully I can get rid of that too. 

I learned the hard way what a "sip" is opposed to what a "gulp" is. Sip = no pain. lol. Like Pavlov's dog I'm learning how to eat.

Thanks everyone for your patience!

Excellent!  Sounds like you are moving right along.  Congrats on your weight loss too.  : )
