Well today marks the 3 week mark since my surgery. I am only down 10-12 pounds, but I am losing inches. I am down 2 pants sizes from a 28 to a 24. So I guess that is a good thing in its own. I went for my 2 week follow up appointment and was told I was doing good, and healing nicely. Ok to start on the pureed stage. Yippee! Had gone back to work last week, and great to see everyone there. And they even expressed their (happiness) in seeing me back...lmao! It was nice to go back to work, but hard as hell with my eating schedule and all. I work 2nd shift and had to rearrange my eating schedule and drinking schedule. And my breaks and lunch times change on a daily basis, so I have to check the schedule the day before all the time.My sugar levels have greatly improved. Pre-surgery they were running 300-400, now they are sitting at 149-180. Still not where they should be, but the docs are happy with that.
I don't have any restriction at this point, and trying my best to stay at the 1/2 cup portions at each meal, and getting my protein shakes, water and other drinks in. I know at this point I could eat more, but that would be just defeating the purpose of getting the surgery done. I go back to the doc's Feb. 4th, and then he will decide if I need a fill yet or not. I am hoping so, cause like I said I know that I could eat more than what I am supposed to with no problem.
Well got to go here and get some exercize in before going to work. I use the gazelle and the Wii Fit Plus right now, and Leslie Sansone's Walk away the poiunds, (in my case it is the inches....lol) Not going to try the Biggest Loser til I am at least 6 weeks out.
Gotta Go!
