6 weeks and Dietitian Visit

Mar 26, 2012

Well, I made it.  At least that is how I feel.  I was told by many if I could make it to 6 weeks I would start to feel like my old self.  And I must admit I do feel mostly normal.  My energy is better but not like it used to be.  I'm an on the go person and I'm still not back to that.

I still have food anxiety.  In fact, I went to my dietitian visit at 6 weeks.  She said I was doing very well.  To keep my protein at 60 or more and calories at 1000.  I was doing that anyway so no problem there.  She did suggest that I start trying more foods.  Yep, once I'm comfortable with something I'm scared to try new things but I am working on that.  I had an apple yesterday for the first time.  I also have had trouble with my protein shakes.  They make ,me nauseous no matter which one I try.  So she said I could drop them and try Carnation Instant Breakfast twice a day.  

I've lost 38 lbs at ths point.  It isn't easy.  I really don't get hungry so I'm still eating on a schedule which just seems so weird.  BUt it is working so I keep doing it.
