6 Weeks out!

Dec 22, 2015

I am almost exactly 6 weeks out from surgery and I have finally been approved for "real food". My nutritionist last week told me that I can't eat veggies or fruit until I start hitting my protein goals. So, I've been working on that. She wants me to eat every two hours to try and get everything in because I cannot seem to get shakes down. I'm still going through the coals emotionally. I was hoping that things would improve but they just seem to go up and down like everything else. My surgeon believes that I had some scar tissue pop in my stomach a couple weeks ago and for the most part I am no longer in pain. I think I may schedule a trip to a support group soon because honestly my moods are really bothering me. I'm down to 332, which is something I should be super excited about but for some reason I'm down because I feel I should be losing more than that. Although, as my surgeon says: it's a marathon, not a sprint. Positive thoughts would be appreciated!
