One Month Post Surgery :-)
Mar 23, 2011
Today is my one month bandiversary! I've lost 25lbs. and feel better than I have in probably a year. My husband hasn't noticed a change, but my Mom (who sees me less) noticed my face is thinner. I have noticed that I have more energy, and don't get "winded" just walking around the mall. The first few days after surgery, I walked out to my pool and back a few times, mostly because I didn't have pants that fit over my swollen tummy. The first week - made it to the end of the block. Second week - made it around the block and now I'm walking 5 - 6 blocks at a time at least 5 times a week.
I can also start soft food now. We'll see how that goes. I am NOT a fan of refried beans, no matter what I tried to put in them to make them better. Ka-pooey. I am in love with Phillips Cream of Crab soup - with a little Emeril's Bayou Blast seasoning thrown in.
I realize my weight loss will slow down now, but I'm still so excited for the future!
