  1. First fill this morning

    · Pangaeus · 06/28/09 06:58 AM

    So I had a fill using floroscopy this morning and the tech put a whopping 9ccs in there. I was concerned about this amount, but because the barium went down, the tech said it was fine. However, I am in lots of pain right now. I'm rather unhappy. And I want to fart alot. I hope that when I wake up tomorrow this will all be gone!
     
    The first three weeks post-op I was able to stick to the program, but I started struggling once I was able to eat solids. I have been walking lots and lots due to my job but also have been eating chocolate every night, so my weight hasn't budged since I started on solids. But I'm ok with that for the time being. Really, its all been ok until today. I've been able to take some sips of juice throughout the day, but it hurts so much and I am concern about swallowing my pills. Boo.

  2. 3 days now

    · Pangaeus · 05/21/09 09:36 PM

    It has been three days since the surgery. My energy level is fine and I was able to go on a long walk with the pup today. I am still having shoulder pain and it feels as if I need to burb, but can't. I am fantasizing about eating bad foods...except I don't really want to eat them more that I want the flavor of them on my tongue. I am mourning the loss of not being able to binge eat anymore. According to my therapist, this means that emotions which were repressed by the binge eating should start to emerge. So far, I'm not feeling that emotional...I just want the taste of goody treats. I am trying to decide whether to get some sugar-free fudgicles or if that is a "cheat." So far I have just been eating tea, crystal light, and apple juice, oh and chicken broth. One cool thing is that I havent pooped in days and don't feel constipated either.
