16 Days Post-OP and loving it!



Recommended Posts

Why?
I'm dropping pounds left and right, I took my last blood-thinner shot yesterday, and they moved my diet up to mushies.

Can we talk for a second about that.
I want to introduce you to my Lord and Savior Scrambled cheese eggs. They came back into my life last night and my eyes were opened to the Beauty and Joy that is Life. Angels sang, cherubs fired arrows, unicorns f*cked to Barry White songs, and Everything Was Right and Good in the world.

Yeah... I'm in a good mood. What? ;)

I love your post! and isn't it a great feeling when you do that last blood thinner injection? seriously, even though they really weren't a big deal, I swear with each one it took me longer to give myself the pep talk to do it than it actually did to do the injection - every.single.time

Praise be! Those scrambled eggs are indeed a savior!
My plan cleared us to eat them when ready starting the day after post-op. They were indeed my go to meal at restaurants and saved me and my social life! LOL

lol I had just posted the other day on some thread, that the day after weeks of pre-op diet and weeks of a liquid diet, when I was able to go to pureed/soft foods, I swear I felt like a straitjacket was removed. The freedom :D. Glad to see you feeling good. ^^

Glad I can edit. Autocorrect is never correct. lol

Ugh! The shots!! I was so glad to be rid of them, but it took several more weeks to get rid of all the bruises! I looked like someone had roughed me up in an alley somewhere, but at least they were careful to only land the blows on areas that wouldn't show with my clothes on!

I can completely relate about the eggs, today finally I had a scrambled egg ( I was able to get only few spoons in) and thankfully it sit good in my tummy and I loved every second of it. I added cheese and milk to it (as I am struggling to meet my Protein goal, I am so tired of the rtd shakes). Taste was awesome!! My surgery was on 09.15.2016.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
