It went well - I slept the entire day of my surgery _ think I was only awake for about an hour or so, mainly so the nurses could check my vitals. I am two weeks out now and was cleared for pureed foods today (thank g-d; I am sick of protein shakes and sweet yogurts). I have also been cleared for all activity, so its time to get back to the gym. :-) I am down 17 pounds since my surgery, 33 pounds since I started the whole thing six months ago.
