Holy crap! Has it been two weeks since August 22nd... Yup, it sure has!! It went by fast, at the time it didn't.. But now it feels like it did.. This past week I really feel like I've felt my best. I had a few "baby's day out" days.. Yesterday I ran some errands, didn't get exhausted or sore... I think I'm really to increase my walking. I weighed myself today... Surgery day weight was 256, and today I weighed 242. That's 14 lbs in two weeks?! I'll take that! :) Target skirt here I come! :) I should have taken measurements on surgery day, but I didn't. I'm going to do that today, to see how many inches I'm losing now, especially with the increase in exercise. I'm doing better with my intake. Yesterday I got super close to my 60/64.. Today we'll see how I do. I'm kicking myself because we got the bariatric advantage protein meal replacement shakes, and it's super gross!! High in protein, but waaayyy toooo sweet!! But I made one with some peanut butter and a little chocolate syrup and it was ok.. But ick.. After I finish the bag, I might go back to my EAS stuff. Hopefully by then I'll be on mushies atleast. I have one more week of just liquids, then move on to mushies.. The first thing I want is a scrambled egg with cheese!! Very first thing on my mushies list!! I am amazed at how bad I want real food. The process of chewing real food, I miss that! I am having problems with not chugging my drinks. Before I could down a half bottle of water only having to come up for air.. I can't do that now.. I was sooo thirsty at church on Sunday, I got an applejuice. I started just chugging it, I thought I was going to puke during worship! I had to sit down and just be like uuuggghhhhh.... Anyhoo... How are the other newly sleeved peeps doing? Or older sleeved? What's your story?

I was sleeved the day before you! Congrats on your new journey! I already made a very soft scrambled egg with cheese...it was wonderful, but don't be surprised you wont be able to eat much at all, I got like half down before my FULL signal went off. FULL is very uncomfortable huh? I'm pretty sure I'll never eat like others do and I'm glad for it....lol I just wish the next 6 months would hurry up and come and go.... I wanna see what I'm gonna look like!!!! ROFL

I'm just 3 days post op and having trouble getting my protein in. All I can stomach are chocolate Muscle Milk and water! Reading all these blogs has been so encouraging and helpful. I'm waiting for intake to get easier, I really had no idea how tiny our sips have to be for the first few weeks post-op! Please keep posting and sharing your milestones!
