3 Weeks Post surgery

May 27, 2010

Well I am down 27 pounds since the surgery 3 weeks ago.  I am very happy with the results.  I have been having some horrible back pain since last Thursday and do not know what it is from.  It seems that when my stomach tightens up so does my back. It is so bad that I actually gasp in pain.  I am going to the Dr today for my 3 week check up.  I have been able to eat normal foods with lots of chewing however after I eat I feel like I'm going to burst and I am not even eating allot.  I am trying to get all of my fluids and proteins but some days I just don't.  Today I will also meet with the dietitian as well so I am hoping she can give me some ideas. 
I am also meeting my mentor in a few minutes.  She had the surgery some time ago and we have so much in common.  She is going to give me some samples of some protein powders that have no flavor and are really good. I am looking forward to that since I can no longer stomach the vanilla and chocolate ones.  I found one at GNC that is a fruit flavor that I have been drinking with water and it is pretty good and refreshing.  I will give an update after my DR appointment.  Thanks for reading.
