Week 3 Post-Op....Still Adjusting
Apr 12, 2011
So, today is three week's since the surgery. The lbs are dropping fairly steadily. No big dips or stalls which I think is good. I am down about 30 lbs in these three weeks. The odd thing is that it does not feel like it. I think the reason for that is that most times I feel very full. I am still trying to adjust to the food and supplement program. Having a hard time with the fluids. I am never thirsty so its a constant chore to drink. I feel like I am drowning with every sip. Food wise has been okay...trying to work on variety so I dont get bored with the same old thing over and over. Cant wait to move to the next food stage in two weeks. Mentally its been a struggle. Everyone has been supportive, buts its still hard socially to be around folks that are eating like pigs...my brain wants to join in on the fun! My body doesnt. Physically I do feel better. I am not retaining as much water in my legs. My back and knees do not ache as much. Ive been walking as much as I can, although the weather has not been cooperating. Three weeks out and no regrets. Best advise to myself and others...be selfish...stay focused.
