3 weeks post op and feeling good
May 06, 2010
The past three days I have finally felt normal again. I had gone through a period of not wanting to eat or drink anything. It was getting scary as my stomach was just closed due to repairs. I tried my best to get enough fluids in me to keep me hydrated but it was touch and go for a few days. I must say it is nice to feel good. I am eating and drinking better and actually get hungry. I am not doing well with protein drinks though. I cannot really find anything that tastes good. I do drink the Chike protein drinks about one every other day. I am trying to get more protein by eating. I go for my diet advancement next week and cannot wait to be able to introduce more foods to my diet and in a different form other than pureed.Everyone says I am getting so thin. According to my scale I am down to 208 pounds but my scale is about 5 pounds different from my doctors so I am around 213 now. Getting closer to that below 200 mark. I cannot wait!!!
Right now I want lobster really bad!!! I am hoping to be able to have it in the next couple of weeks. My pouch seems to handle alot more than I thought it would. I also want to have a salad...or maybe just dressing...but I think it is the salad I want. I love salads and just would love to have a couple of bites of one. but I will wait til the NUT says its okay.
