Two weeks post op

Sep 07, 2011

Soooooooooooo I'm two weeks out. physically I feel great, can barely even tell I had surgery, no more pain, not so tired anymore, just about getting all my liquid's in, moved on to pureed...

But at 9 days post op I stopped losing and gained a lb...okay what ever this could be normal so I keep keepin on. So now I'm day 15 still haven't lost anymore but to make it even worse... today I gained another pound! Now I know its nothing I'm doing because I'm not even getting 500 calories a day! How the hell do you gain weight like that???? I know I shouldn't be discouraged as stall's happen yada yada yada. BUT COME ON! this is suposed to be the honeymoon phase, NOT.

Now the old me after a week on a diet with a gain would give up and go to the hot wings and pizza, then hit the kids snack cabinet. But the NEW me doesn't even want to do that, and couldn't anyway, so hopefully that is going to be the key for me, to just persevere through the stall and look forward to some great losses in the weeks to come. I'm going to start walking on my treadmill today, so hopefully exercise will give my body that little nudge! I just took my measurements, I wish I had taken them pre-op but whatever i took them at two weeks, I'm also going to take some before pics today you know the sports bra and shorts kind so I can hopefully pull them out when I'm frustrated and take new ones...

Good news is my 18's are fitting again. So I'll take that as my first SV....

I just want to be encouraged again...and I want to be able to drink normally again, that is the strangest part of all this for me, only being able to take 1-2 sips at a time then wait....It really is a conscience effort just to stay hydrated!
