9 weeks!

Nov 01, 2010

Well it will be 9 weeks tomorrow since surgery. I am now 45 pounds down and it still feels like a trillion to go lol. I am still not exercising. I am eating 3-4 times a day, getting in about 60-65 grams of protein without protein shakes. I have gone down one pants and shirt size. Over the last week, I have been battling acid and heartburn even though I am taking prilosec and zantac, it if gets any worse, I’ll be going in to see the doc. I am still not getting in enough fluid. I still can’t understand how some people get do it, if I drink too much, I get nauseous. It takes me almost 2 hours to drink a 16 oz bottle of anything. Not much else has changed. I did try salad on Friday and I did fine, it’s not something I will do often but at least I know that it doesn’t bother me. I tried a piece of toasted wheat bread on Saturday but I did not like how it felt so I’ll stay away from that and when I do try it again, I’ll get the Pepperidge farm very thin slices. I will say that I did have a reese cup for halloween; my first time cheating but I was okay and didn’t want another so I am feeling like I have control. I do feel sad that I can’t just go eat something without thinking about it and that every since single meal has to be planned in order to meet my protein requirements but I’ll get over it. I just feel that eating is a chore now that I’d rather not have to do. Sometimes I wish that I could walk around with a feeding tube and IV in. LOL
