7th week post op

Apr 20, 2012

I am happy about losing 2 lbs this week.  It may be coming off slowly, but it is coming off! 

I had my 6 week post op appointment this past Monday.  I saw the PA and she was pleased with the progress I have made.  I have had no issues with being sick or not tolerating things I’ve eaten, and my scars are healing nicely.  I doubt you will really be able to see much of them once they are healed.  The nutritionist said they gave me the wrong paperwork at my two week appointment.  I never should have been counting calories and trying to stay under 900.  Also, I should not have been watching my fat intake.  I have been approved to eat anything as long as it is less than 50 – 75 carbs, and I need to still get in at least 90 proteins.  Well, all the extra fat has got the bms moving right along. Lol.  Andy the exercise guru is so great and encouraging.  He wants me to work towards 210 min of exercise a week.  I can split that time up however it works best for my schedule.  He suggested what exercises would be best for me, as I hate getting down on the floor to exercise.  He also wants me to work with weights 3 times a week.

All in all a good week.
