Post Surgery - a Journey
Jan 03, 2012
Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't written in weeks since my surgery. I have not been in the best of shape. I had my gastric bypass on 11/30/11. The surgery was supposed to take 2 1/2 hours and it took 5 1/2. There was a lot of scar tissue the doctor had to deal with. Since then I've had difficulty eating. I don't feel like eating. In fact I stay nauseated most of the time. By now I should have started and well on my way with the soft mechanical foods. Instead, I'm still on liquids/pureed food. Tomorrow I will be undergoing an EGD to see if the opening is too small. I hope the doctor finds something so that it can be fixed and I can continue on my journey for a healthier lifestyle. Right now, I'm not getting enough protein or carbs and am sick most of the time. I know a few months from now I'll be looking back and laughing about this time, but not laughing right now.
