23 Days

Mar 04, 2009

Post op. Absolutely everything is fine and dandy with me. No pain unless I overdo it of course. Yesterday however, I did find one thing that I CAN NOT eat. That is shrimp. Apparently it just does not break down enough to make it into the stomach. STAY AWAY! It ended up making me throw up for the first time.

I go to the gym every day, drink alot of water, and focus solely on protein. I am a focused woman. A nice thing that my family said was, "Stacy, once you decide to do something, you do it. No question". I am so glad that has never changed for it is the best thing working for me right now.

Also, some inspirational words. I was in the gym walking on the treadmill and was listening to these guys talk beside me. One said, "I will not let my body control me. I will control my body". If that isnt the mantra for all of us that have had this surgery I dont know what is! I now recite that the entire time I am in the gym. Reward yourself by realizing that. YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR BODY AND WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT!
