2 weeks out
Feb 12, 2013
so today is 2 weeks since i had my surgery and i lost 28 lbs....supposedly. i say that because it sounds too good to be true and i don't feel any different and everything fits the same. granted i have almost 200 lbs to lose and i didn't lose much before surgery.
i will say i am still feeling regret. the pain is getting less. i did have some complications after surgery like vomiting and a collapsed lung which felt like a broken rib it hurt so much to breathe.
i cant get all my protein and water in but i am trying. i didn't realize how addicted to food i was, well still am. i wish i could go back in time and undo it. but people tell me this feeling is normal. the first month or so is the hardest. i hope they are right and this gets better, especially when i can eat soft foods.
i want to be happy but i just don't feel it. i am still in pain and i get nauseus after i have my protein shakes and what not. maybe i am drinking too fast? too much? so much to learn. so much that i didn't realize was going to happen. i thought i did research but nothing prepared me for actually going thru with it. i was so focused on just getting it done because i was, am, so unhappy. i know its going to take time and i hope i feel happier after i can get moving more.
today i went to the mall for a little and walked around for a little. which felt good to get out. it's cold and full of snow here so going out isn't really an option.
i hope someone that felt the same in the begining reads this and can tell me it gets better. and share their experiences with me please.
NOTHING NEGATIVE I FEEL NEGATIVE ENOUGH THANK YOU...lol
