Hi thanks for being interested in trading info with other Sept surgery people. Ok lets answer some questions.. And any and all of you can feel free to email me to compare notes on anything.... Surgery date: Sept 14th Starting Weight: 270 Current weight: 228 Current Deit: soft food Protein per day: between 45 and 55 Water: between 40 and 50 oz Calories: between 400 and 600 Whats the hardest thing so far: For me it is hard to be following all the rules and not losing in 3 weeks. It pretty frustrating How do you feel: At about week 4 the ickies stopped and a huge burden was lifted. Up until that point I kept asking"What the hell did I do to myself". What is your Favorite Meal: I love to cook chicken in the crockpot. It comes out so tender that I flakes like tuna and I all all kinds of stuff to it.. Vinager, mayo, low fat gravy, What have your family and friends thought so far: Everyone keeps saying I look great. My husband paws at me all the time,thats a little overwhelming. If you can think of any other questions you want to know, add them....or any suggestions to others answers I would love this Sept board to become active and share info with eachother
