Week 3-4

Nov 01, 2010

Well i'm still having some twinges of sharp pain in my left side under the incision they put the stapler through.  It's very aggrevating as I feel pretty good, but i still cannot bend well to that side nor touch my toes or bend over to pick something off the floor without that increasingly shap pain...blah.  I know it is just the scar tissue and incision pulling and not a hernia at least..but still...sigh....

I've faced a few challenges this week with eating/fluids/vitamins.  Each dayu has been harder and harder to get it all in VS at the beginning i was doing okay.  i ordered some CLICK protien mix online and it should be here by weds.  I bought vitamin water zero and am having an easier time getting those 20oz bottles down than crystal light, and i decided to cook almost all my meats in the crock pot in order to get them the SOFTEST to eat!  It has definetely helped!

I got chicken stuck a few times and that really really sucked.  Felt like a rock sitting int he middle of my chest and after i heaved a few times it just slid down but damn that was terrible.  It's made me more mindful of the amount of a bite i'm taking and to chew chew chew much much much better! 

I'm down to 250 but currently at a stall...it really doesn't bug me that i'm at a stall like it does everyone else.  I guess cause i spend more time focussing on  eating/drinking ect vs. the weight.  Nothing really fits any differently but i know it will all come in the end!  Just trying to be and stay healthy and work hard to make this tool of mine work!

Hugs to everyone on yoru journey!
