3 Weeks Out
Jun 01, 2012
I had my RNY gastric bypass 3 weeks ago today. If it were not for the tiny little scars, I would not believe they did the surgery and re-routed my insides. I have had no ill side-effects and generally feel very well. I am averaging a 1 pound/day weight loss. Most of my weight loss has been in my face, neck and boobs. The fat's just sliding on down.
I rarely feel real hunger. I am occassionally experiencing head hunger though. When I don't have much to do, I find myself looking to graze. My solution to this is to find something to clean and/or have some sips of water. No harm can come of this habit. I'll finally have a skinny ass and a clean house. Who knew that was even possible???
I am currently on the pureed stage of the WLS diet. My favourite meal so far was salt-reduced, canned ham and Fat-free Miracle whip put through the food processor. I am not very adventurous yet about trying new foods. I'm in no rush at all.
I am absolutely in love with Oikos non-fat plain greek yogurt. It is so high in protein and is yummy.
I feel truly blessed that I was able to have this surgery. I am looking forward to being around for my son and finally enjoying all the activities that a healthy body will allow.
