Day 5 after plication

Today is the 5th day since my plication surgery. 've lost 11 pounds as of this morning.
My starting weight was 283
Today's weight is 272 Posted Image

My goal for this first month is to lose 20% EWL of 130 pounds. So my goal for month 1 is to lose 26 pounds and I'm almost half way there! yipppeee!

I woke up in a bit of internal pain this morning. My husband thinks it's my tummy healing. Still following the liquids only diet. I see my dr. next Friday and after an x-ray of my
new tummy, I will get the okay to start mushies. I'm very happy with the liquid diet though as I know once I start on mushies the weight loss will slow significantly. I want
to make the most of this first month and lose as much as I can. 

When I was banded I really struggled with the liquids only diet, but I am not having the same problem with the plication. Food right now actually is pretty unappealing
to me which actually surprised me. I thought I would have a harder time of it, like I did with the band. So I'm happy for that!

I'm off to walk around my neighborhood.
