Up and Running
Feb 24, 2011
So, Yesterday was 5 weeks post op and i'm down a total of 17 lbs. Was starting to get a little discouraged thinking that I should be losing more but per the Surgeon i'm doing fine. Have to work on more water intake. It's really hard to get all my meals in especially when i'm NOT hungry. I get quite sore after working 4-6 hours so the last few hours of the day drag by. Going to join the Ymca this weekend. I was released to do anything but abdominal exercises. I'm seeing small weight loss (at least to me it seems small) but i'm down a size in my scrub pants from a 2x to xl!!! woohoo that feels wonderful! I think i'm loosing my BUTT!!! Thank God that sucker was huge!!! Baby had Back!!! It feels amazing to see the difference in such a short time. My energy levels are picking up and Blood Sugars are Normal!!!! More to come.
Hernia
Jan 25, 2011
Today is 6 days post-op. I think that if it weren't for the Hiatal Hernia repair I'd feel ALOT better.
I'm starting to want something other than protein shake, water, popsicle, jello-o. That damn chili commercial looks soooooooo good. I could puree the hell out of that !!!! Omg. I'm loosing my mind. I came home 5 lbs heavier than when i went in. What should i be at? should i have a loss yet? SHould i look?
Pre-op

Today was my pre-op super excited but a ball of nerves as well. Will be having a IVC filter placed due to a blood clot disorder not really sure how I feel about that. So much information to take in.
