Time sure flies! When people say that WLS is an adventure....they are telling the truth. I thought I was prepared.... for the adventure...I read every thing on line that I could find, read every post on here and in magazines/books. Now I realize that most people only post the good news and how much weight they have lost. My biggest issue is not remembering to chew-chew-chew and to eat slowly. When I don't follow those rules...I get very bad indigestion and a painful feeling in my chest. Not good. I have started losing some hair already- evidence that I am not getting enough protein in daily. I went to my PCP today...my blood pressure meds are now cut in half and I am no longer considered diabetic!!! She also mentioned that I am very dehydrated.....which I assumed...because I haven't been drinking my required amounts either. I know...I know....BAD ME.I'm going to make a committment to get my protein and water in everyday!
