Edwin Harris's Journal, 05 June 2019

On 5/31 had Bariatric Sleeve surgery performed. I am recovering fine so far and this is my 5th day out. My dietician has put me on stage 2 meal plans. I went from all clear liquids to just liquid meals. So I am now able to drink protein shakes, light yogurt, tomato soup. I have been okay with this so far, I cannot wait to have tomato soup for some reason. I also can’t wait for my wife to make squash soup as I love squash before my surgery. I hope I can have that. I apparently lost over 20lbs since but I didn’t document anything as don’t really look like I lost anything. I still have lots of gas pressure and have been keeping off the prescribed opioids except for a few times when it’s pretty unbearable. Walking has been the same. I can’t wait to ride bike again!

You can do it. It's hard but if you take your vitamins and do what they say, you will be good. I had gastric bypass several years ago and lost a lot. Just remember take those vitamins. You can get great vitamins at Bariatric Advantage. They are designed for gastric bypass persons.

Thank you, I will be taking vitamins soon, I have to finish letting my stomach heal then i will be looking for some. I will take your advise and look into that brand also. The hospital gave me some to start off with. They are chewable, non gummy. They told me to stay away from the gummy ones.
