16 Days was the day good or bad?



Recommended Posts

I woke up around 12 pm took all my pills/vitamins as soon as i woke up.

At about 2 ate a hot dog with shredded cheese [cut it up into small bites and chewed really well] Everything went down good no problems.

Drank a lot of Water in between then at about 8 pm felt a little hungry so went out and got my self a small wendys chili. Still haven't finished it, No problems going down.

Feel really proud simply because i really starting to learn when enough is enough and stop i also am stopping from being so scared of food. I can't stay on Protein Shakes forever i just can't handle the taste sorry. I started this journey at 414.5 i weighed my self today i am now 379. :D Just wondering if today was good or bad.

If you ate 2 hot dogs and some chili you didn't come anywhere close to making your min Protein goal. I think most on here are supposed to get a min of 60 protein to stay healthy. I do eat hot dogs too...but not very often. They are higher calorie and low protein. I buy a rotiserie chicken and eat on that for several meals a week. 2 oz is something like 43 calories and 14 protein. Hot dogs have around 120 calories and only 4-6 protein. I also am a low carber so I dont do Wendys chili. I would start a my fitness pal account, if you dont already have one. This will keep track of all of the food that you eat and let you know where you are nut wise for the day. Did you recieve a plan to follow from your doctor? Are you meeting those goals daily? Good job knowing when you are full... And good luck with your journey!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
