4 Months post op

Yesterday was my 4mth mark. I still can't eat much and am very curious what my vitamin levels are lol. I have my 5 mth apointment with my surgeon in 2 1/2 wks and I will know how my levels are then. I'm nervous there way off! I feel I don't eat enough to be at a normal range. I haven't been taking the gall bladder, calcium or prilozec twice a day like I am supposed to. Honestly, I just forget. I notice I'm getting sloppy in food choices a little. Not terribly but enough that I feel guilty after the fact. For example if I'm at a restaurant and I get a salad, I get lettuce, shredded cheese, grilled chicken and or egg and ask what kind of dressing they have. If they have a "fat free" dressing, I get that on the side and dip my fork in it then take a bite of the salad. At home I use a yougurt based ranch dressing which is great! I also found the greatest thing ever, sugar free Oreos! Two cookies is 0 sugar and 5 grams of fat! So when I feel like having something sweet and naughty, I eat 1 or 2 Oreos! I don't have them that often, but knowing I can if need be is fabulous! Buying clothes has been fun :) I am able to shop in stores that I never could've before. I just bought a dress for a wedding I'm going to in Srptember from Ann Taylor Loft in a size 6! I have never been a size 6!
