Default I'm home:)

I am so excited to be posting on the post op board..lol. I just got home yesterday afternoon. Everything is going really well. I'm sore, but other than that I have nothing to complain about. I am having absolutely no problem eating or drinking. Been taking several small walks since monday after surgery. Not much to say just wanted to let everyone know I am home and well

So glad to hear you are doing well. I hope things just keep getting better for you! You sound good only being out a couple of days.

I am still doing pretty good, at least in my opinion. I am having some pain on my left hand side now, but nothing unexpected. I never thought the day would come that I would say I have absolutely no appetite though! I have a hard time remembering to eat, but have been doing really good on the water and walking. I've been drinking the special k protein waters..they are great! Oh and I have lost 13 pounds since being home!!
