I am in such a good place in my life right now, i have a wonderful family and great co workers and friends. I am able to have full liquids now, like watered down grits and oatmeal, pudding, sorbet, and I am thankful. I am 37 lbs down from my highest weight and I feel good. I make sure i walk at least 30 mins a day. If i feel this good now, i cant wait to see what another 80 lbs will feel like. watch out world!
:thumbsup: Post op day # 20. Tomorrow will be 3 weeks since I was banded! 3 weeks!! omg i cant believe that it has been that long. Yesterday was hard, was VERY tired, so i doubled up my vitamans and so far so good. One more week of a "full liquid" diet and then I can eat "normal" food for a week until I see my surgeon again. I already know that I will need a fill and hope that I will get one Feb 3. I havent lost or gained anything in a week, so i guess i cant complain. I have been drinking more water, if my tummy growls I drink and if it still growls, then I will eat. today I had a sugar free pudding and then came home and put some chilli in the food processor, not sure if i am suppose to be eating that, but it kept me full last night.
Today is post op day # 28, and I did GOOD! Had lots of water, tuna salad, protein shake, and some YUMMY taco lettuce roll ups. The only problem is that my ankles are swollen. I fell off the wagon a few days ago and had my fair share of baked lays for 3 days in a row. Lesson learned. But I WON today, so take that Food Demons!! :devil_smile:
Its day # 9 post op, had a rough day yesterday but much better today. Got up early this morning and took my first walk. Did a 1.5 miles in 40 mins, I think thats pretty good for me! Still have 5 more days on the post op liquid diet, then go see my surgeon and move up to a full liquid diet! Woohoo! I can have pudding, and sorbet, sugar free of course, and my Opti fast shakes, ugh cant wait! Hope everyone has a wonderful day! Thank you to my family, friends, and co workers for such great support!
