Today is post op day 18 and I am over it! I really have not attempted to eat anything today because my relationship with food is now so complicated. Before you put one single pice of food in your mouth you must go through a series of questions. On top of everything else you need to remember to take your vitimains and manage to get 64ozs of fluids down. I know I signed up for this but I had no ideal i would be so hard. :wub:

Today I had to premire protein shakes at 30g of protein each and about 30oz of water so far.
So today is post op day 15. I did not get much sleep last night therefore i slept a large portion of the day. I still have a little soreness from the procedure so I'am going light on the exercising. Mentally I feeling ok but I must admit I miss eating alot. I guess I never thought that I would miss the act of eating and drinking so much. I know this sounds so bad but sometimes I just wish I could just chew some food.

30 minutes cardio: speed 2.2, incline 7, calories burned 303

Today is post op day 21. So I went back to work today, and I am beat. I guess I am kind of
shocked that I am so tired since my job is mainly sedentary. I did find having lunch was a
little awkward because I normally have a premier protein shake for lunch. I did manage to eat a couple bits of grilled chicken so for dinner I will have a shake. I am still having problems with getting 64oz of liquids down so if you have any suggestions please let me know. Surprisingly I had a couple of people notice that I have dropped 24 pounds. The recognition really made me feel good!
Keep up the Good fight!
