19 days out

[willowwaters 25]

I have not been on here since before my operation. Today is day 19, I think I am doing oka, the weight loss has slowed down a lot. my heaviest was 265 (my first weigh in), the day of my operation I was 240, today I am 227. I have not dumped, taking everything slowly... getting excited I get to eat food I can chew tomorrow!!! It is kinda strange, some of my friends that have had the operation said they would be there for me and I have not heard a word from them.... yet my best friend, who was against my operation from the start, spent 15 hours with me the day of my operation, and has called me every day, and text me to. so now my goal is to wake up my digestive track, I feel like I am backed up still..... I know I am only "eating" about 3/4 of a cup of food a day but I think by now I should be able to go, with out "help"

Use small desert plates and teapsoons to keep your portions down. Good luck!

Portion Control is not the problem.... I don't eat more then a few tablespoons at a meal.... starting tomorrow, I can work my way up to a 1/4 cup... I bought small containers to keep on top of my food portions!!!!

That's great. It took me awhile to figure out when I was full.
