Went for my Post Op appointment yesterday and everything was fine. Still only down 6.4lbs but I am feeling so much better. I am on mushy still very excited that on Monday I'll be able to eat normal food again. Hard to believe that I just had my surgery on Sept 2 and I am only a few days away from eating normal food again. I do find that I am hungry more than I was when I was swollen. But the nurse I had the appointment with said not to worry too much about that the first month is just about healing and I did get to schedule my first fill for Sept 30th so looking forward to that. I am trying to do some self control on my meals and putting everything on salad plates because right now I do feel as if I could eat more than that and I stop when I am done with that portion. Although, I do have a bad habit I am really trying to change I am a snacker when I prepare food. Take a little here ... little there and of coarse I still have to prepare meals for my husband and I found myself taking little bits from his meal. But I guess Rome was not built in a day. I really am looking forward to my first fill and maybe that will help with that. Nurse gave me the ok for working out so going to start walking more since the weather is so nice now and then I'll break out the treadmill in the winter. I am looking forward to Oct because I think once I get a fill or fills as needed I will see more weight loss which I think will help with motivation kind of hard right now when you really don't feel any difference. Love reading about everyone success really helps and I keep telling myself "It works for them and this will work for me" :thumbup: and I am going to support group at my weightloss center so I think so far I am on the right track. So until next time I ramble....
