HAD MY THREE MONTH FOLLOW UP TODAY. DIDN'T GO AS WELL AS EXPECTED. AS I HAVE SAID BEFORE I DON'T GO BY THEIR SCALES. BUT FOR THE SAKE OF THIS BLOG I WILL.......MY PRE-SURGERY WEIGHT WAS 260. AS OF TODAY I WEIGH 208. THATS 52 LBS OF TOTAL LOSS. (BY DUKE HOSP SCALE). 52 LBS IN ABOUT 3 AND A HALF MONTHS. COMES UP TO ABOUT 15 LBS A MONTH. AND ALMOST 4 LBS A WEEK. I DON'T KNOW. THE DIETITIAN SAID TO BE CAREFUL. ON TOP OF THAT, MY BLOOD PRESSURE WAS LOW. THAT'S WHAT'S CAUSING ME TO GET SO DIZZY SO OFTEN. I HAVE TO WATCH MY PROTEIN INTAKE. MAKE IT HIGHER. EAT MORE OFTEN. IM NOT HUNGRY, NATURALLY, SO I DON'T EAT. ESPECIALLY AT WORK OR ON THE RUN. AND THAT'S NOT GOOD AT ALL. MY FIANCE IS MY COOK NOW. I LOVE HIM. HE HAS BEEN COOKING FISH AND CHICKEN. ALL KINDS OF MESS FOR ME. HE'S THE BEST. IT'S WHEN IM AT WORK THAT'S THE PROBLEM. SO I HAVE PACKED ALL OF MY FOOD AND IT SHOULD BE GONE BY THE END OF MY 12 HR SHIFT, AS WELL AS THE 3 BOTTLES OF WATER I HAVE SITTING IF FRONT OF ME NOW.
I WILL GET BETTER. I WILL EAT LIKE I SHOULD AND WHEN I SHOULD. I WILL UP MY INTAKE OF FLUIDS AND PROTEIN. AND I WILL KEEP UP EXERCISING LIKE I SHOULD. I WILL GET BETTER.
HOPE EVERYONE IS DOING WELL. GOD BLESS.
