I am so surprised at how good I feel! I thank God everything went well during the surgery! The staff at VHC was excellent!! Day 1 and 2 started out a little rough. I could barely swallow and I had dry heaves. By day 3, for me, I figured pain management was the key. If I kept my pain to a minimum, the swelling was less and the fluids seemed to go down easier. Getting all of my protein and water is my goal. I am up to 50 grams of protein and 20 ozs of water. I get an additional 20-25 ozs when you count the other fluids. I'm not sure if that counts though.
I'm looking forward to puréed food and walking this journey with my fellow WLS buddies!!
