3 Weeks Post Op

Feb 10, 2011

Well here I am 3 weeks post op and still can't believe I made such a life changing decision. I am so proud of myself and can't wait to get this life hindering weight off me! I am down 43 pounds (also counting pre op diet) and am feeling so good. My hips and knees are hurting less and I find doing simple daily living activities a lot easier. I'm not quite at the point of wanting to shop for new clothes but I will get there and can't wait to do that. I am walking at work on my breaks and find I am not out of breath as bad as I used to be, and that's only 43 pounds down! Imagine when I lose another 150, I am going to feel like running a marathon, that would be cool! I'm not getting in all the liquids I am suppose to but I don't feel I'm doing to bad. I try to increase it every day. I go for my month post op appt with my surgeon and bariatrician next week so I'm excited about that and start soft foods one week from tomorrow. I'm still taking 2 shots of heparin a day and can't wait till that's over with, one more week. Also hoping to stop taking the Omeprazole 2x day, will talk to Dr. I will update after my Dr appt! Love reading all of your posts, recipes and stories, it gives me strength! Keep them coming!
