35 days (5 weeks) out!
Aug 25, 2009
Officially 36lbs down & I'm pretty darned amazed at how wonderful I feel compared to pre-op!I'm back to work full-time for 3 weeks already! I tire easily, but gaining stamina.
I do believe I'm going to be the next RNY poster child!
I'm getting my daily protein in easily with protein smoothies and soft foods (chili, chicken, & fish for the most part) and am still always full!
My daily water intake is more of a challenge. I'm still trying to get that 64oz of water! Sippy sippy sippy every 5 minutes!! That first drink of water in the morning kinda nauseates me - the pouch does a little flip-flop - but I don't let that deter me! I know what I need and I'm going for it!
Supplements are a breeze - when I remember! It's just a matter of getting the routine streamlined!
Here is a regular workday routine:
Regular pills (including Lasix) first thing in the morning before I leave for work.
Take Citrical pill on the way to work.
At lunch I take 2 Flintstones Complete (gotta time the multi at least 2 hours from the calcium).
I get off work at 6, so at dinner I take the next Citrical.
At bedtime, I take my other regular pills - yay!
Lather, rinse & repeat!
As long as it's a workday, it's no problemo! It's the weekends that end up getting all changed up! That's my next project - getting the weekend routine down!
