I went to the surgeon today and he said I am doing great!! As for the scale... I am so excited! Since the surgery (11 days ago) I have lost 23 pounds!!! For a fat girl, 23 pounds is so exciting! I feel great too! I don't really see or feel a difference yet, but everyone wanted pics, so here they are. The ones on the left are the day before surgery, and the right is today. Just happen to be wearing the same outfit :) lol...
The surgeon said that the incisions and everything look good, and he said I am doing better than most. I also talk to the nutritionist every visit and she said I could move up to pureed foods!! I know to most people this doesn't sound great, but to me I am so excited!! I can now have cottage cheese, cream cheese, pureed protein (terrified), bananas, vegetables, and anything I can puree. She told me I can eat some things as is like a banana (mushed), scrambled egg, apple sauce, refried beans, cottage cheese and so on! At least I get some texture! Tonight for dinner I tried a scrambled egg, and about 20 minutes later I was leaning over the sink splashing cold water on my face thinking I was going to puke, but I didn't thank god. Feeling better now, and will continue to try and progress through this. So for now pureed food it is, I can not have starches yet, but that time will come. I am just excited to start this phase and I have to do this for 2 weeks then on to normal food!!! What I can eat is finally getting back to normal finally, and this is a start to my new, healthier life :)
You're doing an awesome job! keep up the good work and stay focused!
