2 Week Check-Up & Puree's
Aug 27, 2013
Today I went for my 2 week check-up. Dr. Gerig said I am doing excellent and released me to go back to work tomorrow. I will be glad to get back to my normal routine and go back to work. The doctor said I have lost 19 pounds since surgery. So, my ticker reflects my TOTAL loss since I started going to Team Bariatrics in January of 2013.
I also am so happy I saw the dietician and she said I am ready for the pureed food stage. I never thought I would be so happy to get to the next stage!! I am so sick of mashed potatoes, oatmeal, chicken soup, etc. I still am not hungry whatsoever but it is more appealing to have different varieties of items to put in my mouth. I also explained the issue I have with the thoughts of pureed food. The dietician said when pureeing say, chicken. Put a little broth with it to moisturize it, make a couple of tablespoons of mashed potatoes, and think of the meat as "gravy". I don't know, but I can try this:)
