The Mid-Week Update!

So things are going good! My wife has lost around 22 pounds since starting her liquid diet (about 11 since her surgery last Tuesday)! I've also lost 11 pounds since cutting out soda, candy, and upping my protein! I still need to start working out though. I think I'd lose my gut a little faster. But I am so proud of my wife (and apparently my son is proud of his sour smell 😖) with all of the progress she had made! But just a forewarning for anyone who is going to start this type of surgery, it is FAR from easy. Stay tuned for some more updates later on the same bk-channel....

Homecoming

We made it home from the hospital. The babies were SO excited to see their mommy. We had to crate them from jumping on her and getting at her incisions and the tummy tube. The kids were excited to see her too and have her plenty of love. Our son was so nervous he didn't want to hurt her. He was very gentle. Then there was the two year old terror known as our daughter. Screaming and screaming for her mommy even though she was in the next room. Oy vey. Now the real challenge begins for my wife and our family: living with the bypass surgery and beginning to change our habits. P.S.- our babies are our 3 dogs. I only crate the kids when they're acting up ;)
