One month post-op

Dec 07, 2011

One month post-op, starting to feel more normal. Able to sleep laying down in my own bed is wonderful. Still not feeling very hungry.  My tastes have changed. I dont like sweet drinks at all. All my protein shakes do not taste good to me now. I have to cut the sweetness alot with plain soy lowfat milk or plain almond milk.  I am still on mushies and have found that I am able to tolerate everything except regular cottage cheese (lactose intolerant). I am staying away from alot of dairy products they seem to produce excess gas.  I am in love with V8 juice about 5oz per day, yummy...   My sutures appear to be completely healed. I still have the bruise around my belly button but its faded nicely.  My new tummy has its own voice, I now understand the idea of calling it "baby bear" cause it growls loudly its kind of funny also I can feel it rumble. I have never been so aware of the feelings in my body.  I am feeling my energy beginning to return to normal levels.  I measured myself today and I have lost alot of inches so far. Doing great so far...
