I cannot believe i have lost 13 lbs already! I guess not eating can do that for you! 1 week down and i am ready for mushies. I have 1 week left of liquids:mad2:. I have become a big fan of egg drop soup and cream of wheat. :tongue:

I cannot wait to go to the gym. Doc said not for another 3 weeks. till they walking and household chores will have to do!

I am almost in the same boat as you. I am 11 days post op and I am on the mushies and when I say I am burned out on creamy soups and that other mushy breakfast stuff I don't know what to do!! I can't WAIT until I can chew. The other day my husband had a Big Mac and when he took it out the box the cheese had melted down the side and i BEGGED him for a bite!! I bit into it and chewed and chewed....but spit it out cause I got scared! HAHAHAHAHA! But I had the taste in my mouth...I chewed something....and I was good to go!!!

I started at the gym yesterday. Just the treadmill. I walked two miles yesterday and today. Just a little sore but its tolerable. I am down a total of 21 pounds because I started the pre op diet a week early (to pace myself) so my body wouldn't go into a 1,000 calorie a day shock. I weigh myself every Friday and I hope this Friday I see a lower number!!

Wish me luck....and good luck to you as well!!

Good luck!
