First Post-op MD Visit

May 20, 2011

I had a good news/bad news kind of follow up visit with my surgeon yesterday.  First, the good news.  He lifted all the activity and diet restrictions, so I can basically eat what I want and can tolerate.  He said I need to focus on getting solid lean proteins in order to feel full faster.  I'm all for it.  I've really missed chewing LOL.  I'm excited to be able to go to the gym and lift weights, but I'm even more excited to be able to take my daughter to the pool.  Hope it's sunny tomorrow!

Okay, now the bad news.  Because of schedule problems, I'm not having my first fill until June 20th.  That means I have regular hunger and very little restriction for the next 4-5 weeks.  I'm going to have to be super careful so I don't gain back the 18 pounds I've lost so far.  It's going to be tough!

On the bright side, maybe the Doomsday thing will actually happen, and I can scarf down a Twinkie before the earthquake swallows me up.  Hahaha!  Just a little joke.
