Why Am I Starving Today!
Yeah at three weeks there still not much choices to eat so I'm not even paying attention to carbs. I'm just eating what's on my list. Tomorrow I will start paying attention to the carbs in my food choices. I'm also at a stall so the carbs might be playing a role in that.

Why Am I Starving Today!
Today is my 3 week post op and I'm starving I feel like I could eat all day! I am about to start my period but I feel like eating is to easy today. I was able to eat half pack of oatmeal for breakfast yogurt for snack an egg for lunch string cheese for snack and I just ate 3 oz can of spaghetti o's mashed up and feel like I can keep going. I hope this will pass when I start my period!

Food Smells Different.
I know it's just crazy it's like I smell the oil in things now. Today I started mushies so I was excited about mashed potatoes we went to KFC and I got my side of potatoes and my husband got his regular fried chicken. I was wanting to crunch something crazy bad so I put a piece of fried cruncy part of his chicken on top of my bite of potatoes. Yuck bad idea all I could taste was oil. I won't be doing that again! I guess it's not the worst thing that I didn't like the fried taste.

Food Smells Different.
So I'm almost three weeks post op and from the time I came home I notice food smells different but not in a good way some stuff smells awful. The other night my husband was making a chicken breast on the George Forman grill and I swear I had to leave the room it smelled so bad. Next door to the salon I work at is a Chinese restaurant which pre op always smelled delicious now when I walk out side I gag and have to breath through my mouth to not smell it. Has this happened to any one else?

Stitch Hanging Out
My stomach itched today and with out thinking i just scratched and accidently scraped my scap on my incision by my belly button. I looked down and pulled the rest of the scap off and a stitch was attached and it's about 1 inch long just hanging out of my incision. I'm guessing they are dissolvable so should I just wait for it to fall off or should I cut it off.

Recovery Time
I'm a hair styliest soI'm standing all day and I had a week off and was fine to go back then. Nobody at work knew I had the sugery and nobody suspected a thing.

One Week Update
I had sugery last Monday with dr aceves in Mexicali. I feel pretty lucky this has been pretty easy for me. I stocked up in gas x and nausea medicine and one week out havnt needed any of them. Maybe all that will come later I dunno. My pain is nearly gone. I have 4 more days of clears then movin up to full liquids. I'm 5'9 and stated this journey at 298 and as of today I've lost 16 Pounds!!! I had to step on and off a couple time to believe that. 16 pounds in 1 week is crazy! I had not regrets or buyers remorse I'm so happy I did this!
