8 Weeks Post-Op

Dec 18, 2013

Got weighed this morning.  Now at 438#.  That puts me at 73# since surgery and 123# since the beginning of this journey.  Feel pretty good, still having problems with feel tired all the time.  Also, still using a cane to  help me balance.  I am hoping I can shed the cane after I lose another 50 or so pounds.  I have been able to get in the amount of protein and water the doc wants me to.  Its funny, some of the things I use to eat everyday, makes me sick now.  Things like cheese, lunch meat and milk tops the list.  Also, noodles are a big problem.  I can handle Extend protein bars and nuts pretty well (mostly almonds).  My wife made meat balls the other day of which I would have ate dozens in the past because their so good.  I managed 3 meatballs (less than 1" in diameter).  I think I pushed it a little to far because I felt sick for about 1 hour.  Think I will keep it to 2 meatballs in the future.  Currently thats about all I can eat at a meal.  Anyway still going in the right direction and also I know the holiday will not be a problem.  Check back soon.......
