I'm so happy I did this for myself, but I'm still hungry

Apr 06, 2010

I had a sleeve gastrectomy on March 23, 2010. My pre-surgery weight was 241 with a BMI of 41. At my 1-week post op appointment I was already down to 219. Today is my 2-week aniversary and I'm at 217. I'm currently on the soft foods diet (chicken, turkey, tofu, eggs, seafood, cottage cheese, yogurt, etc). I'm being faithful to my diet, but I'm HUNGRY! My theory is that my body is attempting to maintain my weight so it's telling me to eat more carories.

I go back to work tomorrow & I think my body is ready healing-wise (my incisions are not painful and are healing nicely), I just hope that I can get the eatting part right!

Wish me luck everyone!
