2 Weeks Post-Op

By circa

· 661 views

I'm now 2 weeks out and I've lost 14 lbs since surgery, 36 since i started my pre-op.

I'm feeling pretty good about it. I wish it was more, but we all wish that, don't we?

I also have my time of month, so I know that's probably good for about 3-5 lbs.

 

I have noticed, as my endo said I would that the adrenaline issues from the tumors on my adrenal glands is significantly LESS. The adrenaline created is partly in response to the grehlin created in the stomach. Hormones cause other hormones to do other hormonal things.

 

When a person feels hungry, they have a survival instinct that kicks in brought about by adrenaline. Huh. makes sense.

 

Happy with my progress thus far. Happy with my choice. Happy with my recovery. Just getting very happy these days :)

 

I know I'm about ready for the 3 week stall, which I'm okay with. Its not like I can eat a cheesecake over it :)

    I think you are doing great. Were you sleeved on Jan 27th too?

    I know the feeling about the cheesecake. Even though a bite would be nice. :)

    yup. I was. I've had such a pain free, easy recovery. I'm just so blessed!

    Can't wait till incisions are fully healed. I miss my hot tub!
