Start of week #3 post op
Aug 12, 2010
Wow! Things are getting harder, the cravings have come back...what am I too do? I almost feel like I didn't even have surgery
. Is it normal that I can drink a 6-8oz protein shake in less then 15mins or have a 8oz cup of cream soup in the same amount of time? I am just confused and feel like maybe my stomach is not the size of an egg or something!!! Anyways, I had my 2 week appt today, the nurse says I'm fine and I shouldn't be comparing myself to what other ppl can and cannot do, I guess she's right ... week 2 I am only down 2lbs but the nurse said that's normal since my 1st week I had a big number and was dehydrated. I had began to freak out and hubby locked the scale in his car, I think it's best for me to just weight in @ the Dr office.On a good note, I start Mushies Diet this week... I can have things like chicken/egg or tuna salad w/low fat mayo, baked-poached-or steamed white fish, scrambled eggs, oatmeal, cheese, and she even said meatloaf or meatballs w/sauce
this is great 
!!!I feel great... I am out & about ... the hardest thing this week was to go to the movies with hubby and not be able to eat anything from the concession stand
... but I dealt with it!! I am just praying and hoping my Dr did my surgery right...b/c I almost feel like I didn't even have surgery... did anyone else feel this way by the end of week 2 ?
BTW I had my 1scrambled egg w/cheese this morning and it was AWESOME, I was able to keep it down w/no problem and again I was able to eat it in 5-10mins...IS THIS NORMAL for the start of week 3 Post Op??
Please share!!
Thanks for reading,
