The Usual Suspects

Jan 19, 2009

I feel so much better.  My Dr. upped my meds and people here on OH have been really helpful and understanding.  Things have kicked in and I have my energy back.  

Now - back to walking, uggggg.  I don't know if I will ever like to exercise, but people tell me if I keep doing it I will miss it if I have to stop.  Here's hopin'.

No weight loss for awhile, seem to be in that beginning stall.  But I keep getting in my H2O and my protein, so I am doing the right things, just waiting for it to come off on the scale.  Maybe I need to stop getting on it every morning.  I don't let it get me down, it's just nice to see it go down when I have mostly just seen it go up!

I also still have cravings for foods.  I really wanted onion rings (and other fried foods) the other day when DH was eating them when we went out to eat and I still crave chocolate.  I was hoping that wouldn't be the case, but I suspect that these will be life long struggles with me.  The usual suspects, french fries and chocolate.  Maybe those cravings will go away after more time, I am only a little over a month post-op.  It just feels like I have been eating meat, and meat only FOREVER!  I can't wait to eat some veggies, I have been craving them and fruit too.  So perhaps it's really that I want something other than protein - not just fried and chocolate!  That's it!
