Rebel 9 Posted September 14, 2011 Weighed this morning and what to my wondering eyes did appear, 199 on the scale. (Did you think I was going to say reindeer). I hit ONEderland today. It's been quite a while since I've seen it. Very exciting. Almost makes up for the food I'm not eating... Almost. (SIGH).. Day 9 Post Op and I am feeling so much better. Actually drove my son to school today and went to the grocery store. I had to pick up a few essentials. Getting in/out of the car was a bit painful but the driving part was okay. It definitely tired me out though. I am now adding drinkable yogurt & strained creamed Soups to my eating plan. The weight is coming off but man am I ready to eat something, anything. Heck, I'd settle for a bowl of Cereal or a bowl of regular Soup with noodles... I noticed my tongue is a bit white and some on the board say this is ketosis which means I am burning my fat stores. Well, hallelujah for that I guess. 13 days and I get to have canned chicken or tuna, thin mashed potatoes and more. I can't wait. I am struggling now to get in my 60 oz of fluids & Protein per day. I am drinking Powerade Zero, Crystal Light, Carnation Instant Breakfast/Sugar Free, Drinkable Yogurt, Cranberry/Apple (Diluted 50%) and today I picked up some SF Kool-Aid. Trying to keep it as varied and interesting as possible. And I just added the dose of Miralax per day to my eating plan as well. My Hubby & Son are my cheer leaders and are so supportive. I couldn't do this without them and without each one of you. Any time I am feeling down or have a question I can log on and somewhere my question has already been answered or someone's success or similar feelings inspire me. Thank you everyone.
