I haven't been on this site for a while since my last interaction wasn't pleasant. However, I am checking in to say, I have lost 83 lbs so far successfully.

Some people get really boggled about making their goal weight and being rail thin. You know? I would be just as content if can just get out of plus size. That is all I ask for right now.

Cracker Barrel is what is on my mind.
I wanted a juicy hamburger with lots of gravy (so it doesn't get stuck) and I remembered that Cracker Barrel has that hamburger steak. So I and my partner went there and I felt like a normal person ordering. I ordered the hamburger steak with carrots and broccoli and glass of water (to pretend). I even ordered extra gravy in case I need to moisten it. The plate came out, looked great. I took a corner of the hamburger and cut it into very little pieces. I chewed one piece. The look on my face. Somehow, it doesn't taste how it used to taste before surgery. I took another 2-3 bites while I killed time reading facebook for my chewing. I got half a baby carrot to change flavor. by the time I put in the 5th little piece I felt it coming. I put my fork down and told my partner, I am done. Will continue later or tomorrow. Got a to go container and you can say almost the entire dinner went home since I only ate a corner. Then the biscuits in front of me. I wanted it so bad. I pinched a piece of it, and it tasted so sour to me. I was like, what the heck happened!!?? Didn't like that either. So needless to say, I didn't have the Cracker Barrel experience I was planning on. But I got to pretend to be semi normal for a little while. -
Yes, I had a handful of cheetos, and I liked it. LOL Killed the craving and was satisfied. I will not deprive myself. A small grab bag of cheetos has lasted me 4 days. It is my treat.

Surgeon follow up- 6wks post- So far I have been doing good. I asked about the stricture with solids. He advised it is normal. The way my stomach was designed it will stretch eventually little by little so solids will go down easier. It takes about a year for the stomach to reach the size it was intended to be. He said 6mths from now, I should be able to eat solids comfortably, just very little portions of course. Am allowed to start weights and I have to increase my water intake. That's all for now.

Feeling a great sense of accomplishment today. This is the best thing I have ever done for myself. I wish I did it many years ago. It would have saved me a lot of pain and heartache.
