1 week post op appt, down 10 lbs...

Aug 04, 2010

OMG, I 'm soOoO ticked...I took my  to write a blog only for the darn power to go and now it's gone !!! Oh well, I'll try to make it short and sweet!!

I had my 1 week post op appt today (6 days out actually) and guess what.....I 'm down 10lbs since surgery ....what this is so !!!!

So, you know the nurse starting drilling me and saying that's a sign of dehydration b/c I shouldn't be losing 10lbs in a week ...yea, I know what she's saying is important but I wasn't trying to ruin my moment of shine... shoot I haven't been 250lbs in at least 7-9 years!!!  But overall she said I'm doing well... 24 lbs down including the weightloss pre-op

On an even better note... I was cleared for the FULL liquid diet effective today....Yay...because clear liquids were so not my friend and I hated that AWFUL Isopure ... so now I can have things like creamed soups, cream of wheat, pudding, yogurt and my regular protein shakes ...so I'm sure I'll do better with getting my liquids and proteins down now!!!

Overall, I'm doing well.. the gas goes and comes in my stomach, mainly when I drink from a bottle and not a glass but it's nothing I can't deal with...don't get me wrong I wish the ish stops like ASAP.... other then that I find myself having mental desires when I see others eat in front of me, it's not a constant thing but if it's something I loved pre-op then it gets to me just a lil bit. So, I've decided to attend a meeting at Overeaters Anonymous to learn new ways to cope since I can no longer be an emotional eater!!

Anyways, I just wanted to update my OH fam and thank you all for the many prayers and support. Thanks for taking the time to read my blogs and most importantly comment...these things will be something I'll always look back at to NEVER forget where I came FROM!!!


Shout Out to Free2be_Me: Hey Lady, thanks for being so supportive... I'm grateful to have found a friend in you!!!

Peace & blessing to all
