THREE WEEKS OUT --- ONE MORE GOAL ACCOMPLISHED!!!
Apr 06, 2010
Well today I am three weeks out and am feeling WONDERFUL!!!I weighed this morning and I am soooooo happy! I am finally under 300lbs!!! Wooot Wooot!!! I am 295; bringing my total weight loss down to 31lbs. I am so estatic and so proud of myself right now! I am on top of the world and nothing can bring me down off my cloud. I thank God for giving me the strength to succeed and the power to keep going on an everyday basis.
So now to talk about my food journey. Hasn't been easy getting in all of the protein I am supposed to be. I am currently supposed to be on Full fluids, BUT have moved myself back and forth from Puree. I eat scrambled eggs, cream of wheat, canned chicken w/mayo, cream soup, SF pudding/jello, have even tried a little of jamaican whole wheat hardo bread. Anything with texture, I chew the crap out of it, and everything has gone down nicely and I haven't felt funny at all.
I just found that the Full fluid diet was not holding me. I tried the Isoflex protein drink, but it made me feel funny. I called back the nutrition store and the worker told me its probably because my body wasn't absorbing the isolates and it was going right through me. She recommended I try a product called "Quattro" which has a slower isolate that will stay longer in my system.
With my excercise, I try and get out almost everyday and walk Bayfront Park. Since we've had some rainy weather its been real hard, but I can say that since my surgery, I have found so much energy again. Before I was always tired, didn't want to do much but lie around. NOW, I've found the kitchen again! Everyday I am in cooking my kids healthy meals from scratch, washing dishes, sweeping, doing laundry and feeling really good about it as well.
I thank you all for your support and encouraging words. I can't say it enough. I am so glad that I've found OH and enjoy my friend's journeys and support greatly.
Until next time,
Jenn
