1 month out

Mar 09, 2010

Well, I'm actually a little past 1 month out.  As of March 4th I have lost 31 lbs.  I feel good. I'm still struggling with trying to get all of my protein in.  I'm really really trying to work hard on getting my protein in and the last couple of days I've managed to get the 60 grams in that I am required.  I just can't seem to find a protein drink that I actually love, but I'm trying to tolerate the ones I do have and am still trying different ones to this date.  I do not have any regrets still with having this surgery, meal time is just not a highlight of my day anymore like it used to be, lol.  Just coming off of the soft food stage and just not finding a lot of stuff yet that I can eat. Sometimes after I eat my stomach feels weird like yesterday for lunch as soon as I started eating my chicken noodle soup it felt really wierd.  Today I had 1 TBSP. of all natural peanut butter and it didn't bother me at all so everything right now is just trial and error, but I know I'll figure it all out before long. None of the protein drinks bother my stomach even though some are pretty nasty, and I can drink low sodium V8 juice with no problems.  I don't care for plain water and also struggle with trying to get all my fluids in.  I guess I'm gonna have to get my timer out and make myself drink every 15 minutes.  I get tired in the evenings but I think that's still from lack of protein and fluids.  I've not been walking and I am going to make sure that I start doing that also. So really I have not had any problems at all. and very happy with my weight loss so far!
