First Blog!
I have a lot running through my mind right now so figured I'd just blog about it. I had surgery on November 21st and everything went smoothly. As of yesterday, I had lost 21 pounds (including pre op diet). I KNOW I'm not supposed to weigh myself every day, but I can't seem to help myself! So today I weigh myself and I've gained a pound. Yesterday I started on pureed but all I had was a SF Jello Temptations (60 calories), 2 SF Carnation Instant Breakfasts, and SF Applesauce (60 calories). I don't see how I could be gaining weight considering I got less than 300 calories yesterday! I know I'm being completely psychotic about this, but it's stressing me out. Lots of people on here say they didn't lose any weight or they even gaines some once they started eating again. I feel like as long as I'm staying within my calorie limits, I should still be losing! Maybe tomorrow will be different and I would have lost again but now I'm scared to eat what I had planned to today. I'm hoping I'm eating the right way. Here is what I'll be eating today.
8:30: 1/4 of Greek Yogurt
11:00: SF Carnation Instant Breakfast
1:30: Try to finish the yogurt
3:30: SF Carnation Instant Breakfast
5:30: FF refried beans (which I'll probably get less than 5 bites out of)
8:00: SF Hot chocolate
I feel like that's a good eating schedule and I shouldn't be gaining weight with or without the band by eating this way. I really wish I wasn't flipping out about this so soon after my surgery. I know I have to be patient. I'm going to work on that :/
Anyways, I had my surgery follow up appointment yesterday. It went very well. He said everything looked well and I made an appointment for my first fill (well that depends on how much I've lost) for January 3rd. He was extremely happy at the amount of weight I had lost thus far. I guess I should be happy about that. I'm now at 40.1 BMI. That's sooo awesome! Anyways, please excuse my rambles and freaking out. I just had to rant.
