My new life

Jun 23, 2011

Well I'm 5 weeks out as of yesterday. ( june 22) I go back to the doctor for my 6 week check up next week Friday ( July 1)
I've been doing more and more solid foods and things have been going really well. I've never over eaten or thrown up. I do get the hiccops alot :) I think that is because I'm still eating too fast. I just haven't learned how to slow down yet. But that will come, it's getting better every day.

Since starting on more solid foods - I'm finding it harder to get in all my liquids. Partly because of the 15/45 rule - I average about 60 oz a day. But I think another part of that is also that I'm just not a thirsty person. I don't feel thirsty ever. So drinking my water is tough because I have to force it down.
I use things like hot teas or hot water with a little lemon - but I still find that at 9:30 at night I'm still trying to get my water in. But I'm not worried about it, I just keep trying~

Life is good - I'm getting very used to how much my sleeve can hold. I feel satisified and never hungry.
I'm loosing slowly - and that's ok. Today I'm down another pant size. I do my best to stay off the scale so as not to get discouraged.
This has been a GREAT experience in my life.
