Hi Meredith!
Wow! it actually made my adreneline jump reading how your life changed! I'm at the beginning of my journey with 30 lbs. down and 60+ to go. I've made exercise a part of my lifestyle, and like you, I love it - even when it hurts!! I'm able to accept a compliment without thinking they are just being polite,and the most important thing to me is that I feel like I am participating in life with my active family instead of watching them enjoy theirs! My daughter and I take kickboxing classes and tomorrow are running/walking in our first 5K. My confidence is definitely improving and my energy level is borderline manic! I'm learning to cook healthy alternate foods that are actually pretty impressive. (Thai, Indian, Moroccan and Vegetarian). I've lost a little and gained so much more in other areas of my life! (o:

Woohoo!!!
I had my VSG surgery on Thursday, 11/15...
Some of the things I've learned in the last couple days:
Applesauce is the devils food. (It's the only thing that's made me vomit so far).
Getting enough fluid/protein in is a challenge... Any tips?
(I'm vegetarian, so bone broth is out...)
Walking has always been my favorite form of exercise, short of swimming, but it is now a necessity... get that gas OUT!
& I LOVE nurses!! I was in intense pain post-op & the nurses were amazing.. they were amazing throughout my short stay.
(& they are the only people on the planet that can tell you: "I can hear your intestines moving!" & make it sound like: "& the Oscar goes to...") :D
Thanks to everyone on here who has helped get this journey started.
I'm incredibly excited for the next phases moving forward! :) -

Reminiscing over a conversation b/w myself and a coworker who raises cattle: ME: A lot of people are becoming vegetarians in order to lose weight. Coworker: (stares at me funny) Why? Even cows get fat just by eating grass. ME: Realizing farm logic 1 point, my diet logic-0 points.

Sorry it took me so long to reply! I suck at logging on :] Each meal is around 1/2 a cup. I aim for 70 grams of protein. Breakfast is usually an egg or egg beater and veggie sausage. Lunch is usually a salad with chicken and dinner is some sort of chicken or beef. I was a vegetarian for 6 years and I still do eat a lot of veggie foods.

Here are some vegan/vegetarian high protein recipes made with tempeh and seitan. You won't be able to eat these until you get to the mushy/soft solid stage, but at least you know there will be options for you.
