1 Week Post-Op

So its been a bit over a week since surgery and I am feeling pretty good.  I had a pretty rough time at first due to a complication.  The stapler mis-fired and tore my pouch.  Surgery took almost 5 hours instead of just 1 1/2 hours.  I was in the hospital for 5 days and in a HUGE amount of pain.  Things are much better now and I have already lost 18 pounds!  I have graduated up to squishy foods like mashed potatoes and scrambled eggs, and will go back to work in about 1 1/2 weeks.
