I'm just a normal girl crazy in love with my Husband George, love to travel and eat... and usually fail at losing and keeping weight off... We never wanted kids of our own but we adore our nieces and nephews. We are also huge movie buffs who enjoy going to advanced screenings to see most movies before they're released. My life is fun.... Full of family and friends and a while lot of laughs.

Overdoing it....
I ended the day yesterday crying hysterically, nauseous, in extreme pain.... It was awful. It was my first day driving... It was TOO SOON. I didn't take my pain killers since I can't drive with them and the tylenol wasn't cutting it by the end of the day. These staples really hurt me... I want them out. I am tired of liquids... and feel weak and nauseous sometimes. I feel like my stomach is ready for soft foods. I did go to my PCP's office yesterday and she listened to my lungs, looked at my incisions, and said everything looks and sounds great. I have lost 22.5 pounds since they weighed me on March 27th. I am hoping to be down more when I see my surgeon next Wednesday. I can't really exercise yet but I do try to walk around as much as possible. I am pleased with how I feel about food though. I went to the movies for the first time the other day... Popcorn is tough for me, I really love it. So much that I used to chew it and spit it out... So There were people eating popcorn behind me, in front of me and beside me... and I didn't want any... That's never happened before to me. I drank my Protein Shot... Which as you know tastes like dirty feet, and I got the 3.8 ounces down... but the taste was still in my mouth. My husband gave me 1 hershey's kiss.... I sucked on it and the deliciousness filled my mouth. I didn't desire another one. I was content. Weird, right?

So sorry it has been so hard for you. Hang in there,
ReplyDeleteMake sure and take care of yourself! I hope it starts getting easier... but I LOVE that you haven't had food cravings! That has got to be the best!
ReplyDeleteHoping every day gets a bit easier.
ReplyDeletehang in there sister! This is going to be a journey of ups and downs, but mostly downs (on the scale that is). I hope you are feeling more rested and that those staples come out soon. My incisions are in the itchy stage right now... ugh. I'm enjoying a delicious protein shake for breakfast, again, this morning. I am looking forward to more variety of choices soon too.
ReplyDeleteLoves ya!
How are you? I hope you are doing well!
