2 weeks post-op
Jun 27, 2007
2 Weeks post-op and I am 100% back to normal. I have not expereinced any complications. I have lost about 40 pounds and feel super. I am getting 70-80 grams of protein, all my vitamins and about 65-70 ounces of fluids. I have had no problems with the foods I am choosing except some mashed up egg salad that was just too thick. I never got nausea or vomited it just sat on/in my pouch for a long time and I was a bit uncomfortable. I will just advoid it for now.
I would recomend this surgery to anyone.
It's a go

I saw Dr. Chebli for my pre-op appointment 05-29-07 and everything is all set. I have done all the necessary tests, lost 5% of my weight, and been given all the pre-op instructions. Dr. Chebli took me through the before, during and after steps of what to expect. My sister is coming to Seattle to help out while I am in the hospital and during my initial recovery at home. I am blessed to have her support and care. Two weeks from now the surgery will be done and I will be one step further into this journey. YEA!
