3 weeks post op.. (almost)
Well Monday is 3 weeks post op for a total loss of 20 pounds. I only lost 1 pound this week. Hey I was happy:thumbup: I thought for sure now that I am on regular foods I was going to gain!! I had a couple of interesting moments this week trying foods and being STUPID :laugh:! Even though my band has no fluid I can not eat nearly what I ate before and dry foods have a really hard time going down. I got a turkey and swiss wrap the other day took one bite and felt like I was choking.:smile2:
It was weird I would have thought the stuck feeling would have been lower but it was stuck right in my esophogus. And what did I do... drank water.. nope wrong thing to do. I actually used some of the tips I saw on here and streched my arms over the doorway and it was all ok in a few minutes. I find it VERY hard not to drink while I eat. Probably one of the hardest things to get used to! My next appointment is for my first fill on the 21st, I am determined to be at least 5 pounds less by then!!
The best thing that happened to me this week was my dad (always very critical of my weight) saw me in shorts and said hey I notice already NOW DON'T GET TOO SKINNY! I really appreciate all the posts on here they help more than you know!
