7 weeks out!

Aug 11, 2010

This has been a journey! The first few weeks were rough! I thought I was going to starve to death. I stayed  so hungry. I was so tired and thirsty. I still at 7 weeks cant get in the 64 oz of fluids that is suggested. I still have a lot of restriction although I can eat more than a few weeks ago. Obviously liquids/mushies I can get in more of those. I can do 2-3oz of meats. I have vomited 4 times due to my new tummy's dislike of certain foods. Eggs are a no more for me.I hate protein shakes! I try every once awhile but they make me want to vomit. As for loss.... :) I lost 17 lbs in 10 days then stalled for almost 2 weeks, yes I was freaking out, but since then I have been steady.  Since surgery I have lost 37lbs and total (preop) of 43. I have went down 2 clothes sizes! I am 5lbs from being half way to goal. If you are thinking about it, research and if you think you are ready go for it!! Its not easy! The food cravings and head hunger can be brutal ( I have actually cried over it) but it is manangable! Good luck, if I can help you please email me!
