I've been bad :(

Oct 23, 2011

So Dr. Aceves' post op plan calls for 10 days of clear liquids, 10 days of full liquids, 10 days of purees, then 10+ days of soft foods. I was several days into the full liquids and still getting under 500 cals a day, sometimes less than 300, with little or no carbs. I was so frustrated, and the hunger monster set in. So I started thinking, hey, other people are on purees at 3 weeks post op, why can't I be?

So I slept on it, and this evening I bought eggs and some baby food (stage 2 meats). Tonight I tried an egg. It went smoothly except I ate too fast and did end up spitting up some. Mentally, i think this will help me a lot. My weight loss had come to a stall and I was just ready for something different. I am going to try my best to stay under 30g a day of carbs a day(Dr. Aceves doesn't really call for that, but from what I've seen, people who low carb during the losing phase get to their goal weight pretty quickly).
