Almost 4 weeks post op and doing great

In just a couple of days I will be 1 month post op. I can't believe it. 31 lbs lost so far. One size down. Worked at at the YMCA - 30 minutes on the treadmill, and 30 minutes on the cycle. And I feel great.

 

I've made some mistakes - eating too fast (uh - horrible feeling in my throat like it was all backing up on me - no vomiting, but almost wanted to to get rid of the feeling), not eating enough (hate that lightheaded woozy feeling). Funny thing is that I still don't have an appetite - I can eat, but I have no urge to eat.

 

People at work have noticed - apparently I had a chubby face, and its noticeably thinner. I can't see it, but a bunch of people have mentioned it. I am really enjoying wearing clothes I haven't had on in years.

 

Journey well under way, a few bumps but nothing serious. Smooth sailing...

You are doing great. My sleeve surgery is April 27th on my two week pre-op and I am having a terrible time. Im hungry. Do you have any suggestions for me?

I really don't have any hunger. Still. I'm a little over 4 weeks out, and not only do I have no urge to eat, the things that I normally crave - chocolate, bread, cheese - nothing! no craving, nothing. Its weird. But I'm grateful. Hope your recovery is doing well!
