February 5th- 1 Moth Post Op Update w Pic
Here is my 1 month pics
I lost 18 lbs, and 36 inches, you can see it the most on my stomach and my face.
I still have liquid protein, and i have mashed potato, carrot, and Rutabega so far. I also have chicken, ribs, turkey. Just small amounts. I try to limit to 2 tbs of meat and 2 tbs of mashed veggie.
I try really had to have water, Im still not even to 20 oz yet. But I don't constantly sip. Its hard especially when you go to stop 30 mins before and not have to drink 30 mins after for each meal you want to have. its hard to fit it all in. I get about 60 protein, and thats with 2 shakes and some meat.
I still have yogurt and pudding still. I also can have a few fries, and had yam fries. And haven gravy.
I find it hard now cuz when I eat I like to take more then 1 bite, and the food gets cold because you can't eat at a normal pace. I need to get used to one bite, chew swallow, wait a minute then take another.
When I get full, I have a heavy chest feeling. and i just take a sip of a drink to help wash it down.
My incisions have closed up, still red but healing Its been a good month. I want mac and cheese and pop!
