Default 6 week check up

Today I had my 6 week check up. I lost 19 more pounds for a total of 70 all together. Was told to start on soft foods. He showed me the pictures and told me stretched my stoma to 12 inches but there is always a possibility it will close again. But I am praying that that won't happen.
