Two Weeks PostOp

Dec 31, 2009

I survived!  I'm 2 weeks postop and feeling great.  I've lost 19 pounds since surgery, but only 1 pound in the last 3 days, so I may have hit a stall.  I know stalls will happen and it's a natural reaction that my body will go through.  It has gotten a little frustrating since at first you see 2, 3, 4 pounds drop each day, then nothing. 

I'm on full liquids now and have eaten sugar free popcycles, sf pudding, yogurt, mashed potatoes, potatoe soup, refried beans, grits, and oatmeal.  I can't wait to start mushies on 1/6/10.  Casseroles here I come!

I can't eat very much, but what I eat is very satisfying.

I'm trying to do the Wii at least 4 days a week and last night I started lifting weights with my arms (2lbs only) to fight the flabby arms in the future.

I am so happy I got my sleeve.  I can't wait for what 2010 will bring!

Happy New Year to me!
