2 Week Post-Op update
Dec 01, 2010
Yay, had an update with my regular physician today and we are already lowering the dosage on my blood pressure med. Can't believe that is happening already!I feel good but very tired in the afternoons. I am supposed to go back to work next week but am going to be one cranky baby when I can't take my afternoon nap. Still have had no nausea and am not having any problems getting my protein and liquids in on a daily basis. My only hiccup is I don't want any food and am having to force myself to eat my 3 meals a day and haven't done a good job of doing that. The food smells good, tastes good but just has no appeal to me.
Well, the question we all know will come has come and keeps coming. "how much weight have you lost?'
I get a "c'mon?!" look when I tell them I don't know. I truly have not stepped on my scale at home since leaving for the hospital. I took the battery out of it because I know once I start, then I will become psycho about it. I also have a fear that it won't move and that I won't be one of those who gets to post big numbers at 4, 6, & 8 weeks. I know everyone loses at different rates and I know that scale will move if I follow all the rules and use my pouch as the tool it was intended. I KNOW all this but I know me and I am not ready to become a slave to the number on the scale yet.
2 weeks out and I have not experienced "buyer's remorse" yet. I'm hoping that stays away but I am ready for it to rear its head and am prepared for it.
Am loving the fact that my blood pressure is actually close to being too low; I have been on BP meds since mid 20's.
