Post-op Week 2

Hello blogosphere...

I am now 14 days post surgery... still struggling with getting all the liquids in... feeling forced to eat...nausea daily...

but you know... I won't complain... (or is that what I just did? LOL)

I must say, I am feeling more and more like myself every day...gaining energy while losing weight...

the one thing I notice is that sweet stuff is VERY sweet... even sugar free stuff... and it makes me feel a bit queasy... and savory foods are soooooooooooo goooooooddddd!!!

I am at the stage now that I can eat ground meats, soft cooked veggies, soft scrambled eggs... no more cream soups!!!

Like I said, its a chore to eat... I am NEVER hungry... so making myself eat has been totally mind blowing...however, I didn't realize how much I missed chewing!

Ok... here are the numbers...
Pre-op: 304.5 lbs
Week 1: 293.8 lbs
Week 2: 289.8 lbs
Total weight loss: 14.7 lbs

My clothes are fitting differently...and my face is sooo much slimmer than it was before... when I feel more comfortable, I will start taking body shots... maybe once I'm a month out... anyway... I am glad I had the surgery... even with all the challenges... I don't regret my decision to make steps to be healthier and feel better about myself...

anyway... thanks for reading...

be blessed!
