Can't believe I am heading to 5 weeks post surgery. The past 5 weeks have been quite a bit more challenging than I had anticipated. The actual surgery wounds have not given me much issue at all. The problems I have been dealing with is not being able to eat....

I know that seems like a duh statement and that was the whole point of the surgery, but when you have been a binge eater, emotional eater, etc. There is nothing that can prepare you for that being taken away. There is definitely a greiving process I have been going through regarding it and feel like I am now in the acceptance stage.

I did get sick a week ago and was running a fever of 102 degrees for about 3 days which really sucked, but it did not seem to be surgery related, just a virus of some kind. I am down about 70lbs since February 10th, which is very nice, but still have a long ways to go. I have also still been running, which I feel pretty good about.

My 6 week post-op appts is next week, I will be meeting with the exercise guy, nutritionist, and nurse I believe...
