2 Months And Counting

Sep 01, 2009

 Tomorrow is the 2 month surgiversary that joined me and my sleeve forever and ever amen. LOL  I saw my surgeon today and things are looking promising.  I have lost a total of 27 pounds since surgery, not setting the world on fire, but progress none-the-less.  I have so much less nausea and have begun to try new foods.  I still depend on protein in liquid form to meet my daily requirements.  But, I think we're getting somewhere and that it won't be too long and I'll be eating "real" food again.  I am sticking to straight proteins, no cereal, rice, pasta, bread, etc.  I told her that my snacks consisted of peanuts.  She told me she has peanuts for snacks regularly too.  We discussed the best brand of peanuts.  It was so awesome to talk about something that didn't have a medical drama attached to it. 

There is still some funky testing ahead but I'm so relieved to know this journey is going to finally get off the starting block and go somewhere.  The temple Builder has the blueprints, and he's showing me a little at a time.  I'd sure like a look at the big picture, but that's not how it works.  I have sufficient for now.  Just knowing we're headed in a good direction.
