PROTEIN!!!!!

Jan 03, 2009

Well, here I am 16 days out.  It is really great!  I have had 2 bad days, just nausea mainly.  I had a bad pain under my right breast going to my shoulder.  It felt like a knife.  We went to the ER and they did all kinds of tests and come to find out it was GAS.  I hate that damn stuff!  That has been the hardest part of this whole thing.  I have not felt hunger since Dec18.  I hope it stays that way.  I really am wanting cottage cheese soooo bad.  I am craving fish also.  I have no cravings for junk food, or soda or bread.  I told myself that I am done with white bread.  I am going to do my best to NEVER eat it again.  I believe that I am like a drug addict.....I just can't even have a little taste.  If I don't start I don't have to worry about stopping.  That is how I see it.  It is just so hard right now to get all of my protein in.  Everyone says not to worry it will come.  I just am so scared of my hair and nails falling off....I swear I can feel them loosening.  I am trying to add more daily, I just get full and don't want to stretch my pouch.  I have lost 50lbs!!!!!      It is sooooooo exciting!!!  I know it is going to happen this time, I am beside myself.  It sorta feels like a dream, like it really isn't happening to me.  Like I can't believe "I" am ever going to be small.  It just seems impossible.  I know that attitude is everything, and I have a good attitude, it is just that I have never been small....it has always been a dream of mine.  So, I have a hard time excepting that I will be "thin".  I know other people do as well, it just is something we have to get use to.  I have never once regretted this surgery.  Even when I was having alot of pain from the gas.  I am so very glad I did this.  It is truly a blessing!  I just hope I can go to puree's soon!
