2 weeks Post-op

I went for my follow up yesterday & lost 11 pounds, I was very excited about that!! but... here goes the big BUT, & I'm not talking about my behind either . As soon as I stepped foot out of the Dr.'s office I had the sudden urge for taco's, I mean I felt as though I could have killed for them!! I knew in my head that I COULDN'T have this, not this soon anyway's!! I'm guessing I got my first real taste of food deprivation, and boy oh boy did it put me in a raw mood but I soon got over the fact that I wasn't allowed Taco's when I did learn that I could have a very small amount of re-fried beans!!... So, I did get some satisfaction in some way! & I'm almost sure I'll go through this many more times, just takes getting use to!

Congrats to you on your loss!!  I keep craving for some salt & vinegar chips (OMG) I wonder when I can have at least two of them. LOL


Best wishes to you

From one Loretta to another....I know what you mean.  I have been wanting some mexican also.  I have a can of refried beans at home that may get opened tonight for dinner.  Add some cheese, lite sour cream and salsa. 

I had my RNY 4 weeks ago yesterday.  I have been feeling great also.  I came back to work this week.  Today I have been feeling sluggish.  I went home and took a 1.5 hour nap at lunch.  I am feeling better.  Thank goodness!

Congratulations on your accomplishments.  Keep up the good work.  We are all in this together!

Hi Loretta,

I read your post, and congrats on your 82 pound weight loss. Would you mind sharing how much of that was post op (within the last four weeks??)
Thanks

Thanks for the congrats! 

I have lost 30 lbs. post-op.  My surgeon had me lose 50 lbs prior to surgery to help with the shrinking of the liver and making the surgery easier and safer to perform.

Thanks,
Loretta

I can relate to the taco craving. I have wanted one for weeks now! But not just any taco.. a Taco Bell Dorito Taco. Ugggh!!!
