I AM Eleven Days Out!!!
Dec 30, 2008
What can I say....this has definitely been quite the ride, that's for sure. I have up and down days, just like the best of 'em! I struggle with the usual: getting in the water, vitamins, protein, calcium, oh...and still blowing on that spirometer too. Yeck. Yesterday was the first day my head told me I felt hunger. I know it's playing tricks. Those nasty Centrum chewables are enough to do anyone in! Ugh! I know I haven't been the perfect WLS patient, but I am trying. This is just so much more emotional than I think I could have ever prepared myself. The good thing is that I am off the pain medicine (Lortab), as I think it was contributing to my emotional state. I do still have pain, but at least it is more manageable at this point. I can deal.The pouch is holding up well. Thankfully I have had no complications thus far, thank God! Attempting to stick to the yellow sheets as much as possible. It's still really hard to be around "real" food right now. Right now, I am doing a fairly good job of staying away from it. Head hunger is such a pain! Ugh!
I am thankful to have found this site and all the great support system that is here. Wouldn't want to do it without ya all! More to come....
