Had my post op appt yesterday. Everything went well. He asked me how much I was puking, and I said NONE, he couldn't believe I haven't puked. I am down 17 pounds from surgery, so that is good, down almost 40 pounds since my first doc visit. This liquid stuff is getting old though, I won't lie. I have had a cracker here and there, last night I had some tuna and crackers, ate a bit too much, just made me really tired. Tonight I had eggs. I scrambled two eggs, so I would have some left over.
So today I have eaten an individual size applesauce, 3 triscuits, and I would say one scrambled egg with green salsa. I feel full. My doc said I need to start eating at the same time everyday, and to eat 4 times and no snacking in between. But this is when I start eating regular food. Oh and when I eat I can drink up until the time I start eating, but then I can't eat an hour to and hour and a half after I eat. WOW that will be hard. Right now I feel overwhelmed about what I will eat. What I should buy. What has the most protein, it's a lot to take in.
I am ready to go back to work Monday. Wednesday I can get in the pool. Monday I start college, I have a night class Monday and Wednesday, that will throw a kink in my food schedule.
It is weird, as much as I have tried to not make food the main focus of my life, it is now the only thing on my mind 24/7, ugh. It's hard!
