ONE WEEK POST OP! Happy St. Patty's Day!

Mar 17, 2010

So.... I got on the scales today.... 320.1lbs!  Thats down 5lbs from surgery day!  That is was spirit booster to say the least!  I have felt pretty great today as well.... having some trouble getting in all my protein, those shakes are just not doing it.  I feel like I could puke just thinking about them!  Im going to try to do better I know that the protein is important and a BIG part of the weight loss.  I just wish they could taste better!!

The soreness is pretty much gone... other than this weird pulling pain I get in my lower stomach when I getting up and down or moving in certain ways.  I hope its nothing, Im going to ask about it at my appointment next week if its still there.  I finally went #2 today!  lol  TMI Im sure...but its my blog!  HA HA  I had some black bloody tarry stuff when I first came home from the hospital but today I had more of the same.  I was kind of worried, but I feel good, so Im just going to give it a few days and see if it goes away.  PLEASE GO AWAY! 

The gas is also alot better... and I had a couple spoons of Wendy's Chili tonight.  It tasted SO amazing.. but amazingly to me... a couple bites and I definitely didnt want anymore!  Its one of the things my doc suggests trying first, since its great in protein and easy.  It just felt good to get a little REAL food in my mouth!  I was talking to my Adam...the hubby... tonight... its the weirdest thing thinking that I haven't really eaten in like a week and a half! SERIOUSLY?  SERIOUSLY!!  A week and a half!!!  but in that week and a half I've lost almost 10 lbs!  and IM NOT even one small bit hungry... if anything its the opposite I have to force down everything...even water.  Well aside from those bites of chili...they were amazing but MORE than enough to satisfy me! 

So... Im just rambling tonight... Im SO tired!  I can't believe its been a week!  Oh... and I officially got out of the house today!  WHOO HOO!!!  Only to the grocery for some staple items and some tylenol for the teething poopers!  Its amazing the things you can accomplish when you put your mind to it!  I have managed to help with the babies ALOT more since I got home than I thought.  It hurts...and I've probably done more than I should but OH WELL... Im doing it and Im getting through this!
