5 week post op
Jul 03, 2010
I am at my 5th week post op as of yesterday. I am down 30 lb from my highest weight. This past week has been the hardest so far....all the swelling in my stomach has apparently gone down b/c I can eat more. However, I still only eat 1/2 - 1 cup of food at a time, even though I can eat more.I am exercising 5 days a week....3 days a week I walk 30 min & then 2 days I walk 45 min. I am going to try the C25K just to see how I do with that.
Overall I am still pleased with my band. I know I am ready for a fill though. I will be going on July 12th & am looking forward to that. I enjoyed the restriction I had right after surgery & although I know I may not have it with 1 fill, I know that I will get there eventually.
I have realized that late night eating is not my friend. Every time I eat late, I always gain wt...even if just a few ounces of wt.
So I have decided not to eat after 6:00 on week nights & 7 on weekends or at least 3 hours before I go to bed.
I am getting in my water & protein. Getting in the protein is much easier now that I can eat regular food. So I don't have to drink the shakes like I had to before.

Dream big, reach high & got for what you want.
