just starting to feel good...

Oct 25, 2010

At my last Dr visit, I found that I had become lactose intolerant as a result of surgery. Did n't know it.....didn't even know it was something to consider. So, while I've been home from the hospital for 11 weeks, each and every day I've had 1 or 2 protien shakes made with skim milk.
Breakfast: protien shake
Mid morning: snack bar
Lunch: Aching stomach (I thought was just intense hunger),  Easier to drink to "satisfy that hunger" than to eat due to constriction. So, another protien shake w/skim milk
Mid afternoon: protien bar or two
Driving home from work, more "intense hunger" / churning and aching stomach
Dinner
Conclusion at the time..."Gotta get used to this new routine, find new foods to try, etc
Correct conclusion.....no more milk and now it's bearable hunger that I can live with
Only wish I'd found out several weeks ago!!
Worst...434 (2009)       Jan 2010....410       Surgery 7/19......380      Today......312      Goal......240-250
Overall loss.......122 lbs!!      2010 loss.......98 lbs!!   WoooooooooooHooooooooooooo!!
