Four week update
Sep 01, 2014
My "week 3" stall is hanging on for dear life for another week, BUT I did lose an inch off my hips (I'm very much a pear, so that makes me happy). Also, at a family gathering on Saturday and at church on Sunday, people were commenting on my weight loss (people who don't know about my surgery). So I'm focusing on the good so I don't fret too much over that scale! I did lose 2 pounds over the last 2 weeks, so I guess it's not technically a stall, but it's slow compared to the first two weeks!
I started soft foods this week and tried some whitefish over the weekend. It was so good. I feel like I'm finally eating real food again. I'm still struggling with fluids. I want to chug water, but I can't. Just taking tiny sips is frustrating, but I know this stage will pass and I'll eventually will be able to drink normal sips.
