10 days out

Jun 21, 2011

Things are progressing quite nicely.   On Day 8, I called the bariatric centre to tell them that I thought I wasn't taking in enough calories on clear fluids.   I was tracking about 100 calories each day and I was starting to feel really lethargic.   They were etremely helpful and moved me right away to full fluids.  

Now I an have Boost, Carnation Everyday breakfast, yogurt, pudding etc.   What a change.  Just after 2 days, I feel like I have lots of energy and really almost back to normal.   I can see why some people can get into trouble early on by eating the wrong thing, because you feel just like you did before surgery.  

My weight loss hit 25 lbs today, YAY!   That translates into about 12 inches of fat gone.   That feels wonderful, but even better is that I am not taking any more medications.  

I am off to see the family doctor for a quick check up today since I don't return to my surgeon until mid July.
