Woke up this morning with a splitting headache. I think I'm dehydrated. I kinda figured this would happen at least once. It's tough to get the required 48-64 oz of water down every day. Time to start drinking on a schedule. :) #VSGjourney

I've been on the post-op liquid diet for six days and even the thought of solid food makes me salivate. Even the pureed stage looks good to me, as I think of what I can put in a blender. Oh, the possibilities ... 🤤

Here's a quick update. I'm home and I'm feeling good. facebook.com/846249200/vide…

Day two hospital update.

After 12 hours on my back, I finally got up and walked the corridors. It felt SO GOOD! Only problem is I was walking around during dinner time. The aromas were SO TEMPTING! Currently, I’m enjoying a pit stop before I do some more laps. But I’m gonna wait until AFTER DINNER. 😟
