I just found out that milk has Protein. Lol

LoL! Good for you! Certain veggies also do... not a lot, mind, but they do. Google 'Protein rich foods' and you'll get a very comprehensive list.

Hello' date=' How many pounds ave you lost so far?

[/quote']

Hi there I have lost 15 pounds since surgery and I'm not sure from before because I don't know what my exact weight was when I started my 2 week pre-op diet but I think it was a couple of pounds. I've lost a full pants size though!

I stalled for a few weeks after surgery but I think I'm in a good groove now. I lost 5.5 lbs last week and so far I've lost 3 lbs since last Friday. Today when I weighed without shoes I moved the bar to the 250 and not the 300 for the first time in I don't know how when. I'm barely below 300 but dammit I'm below! I feel really great about that. Still can't tell much weigh loss yet but the scale doesnt lie. Just had to share. :)

I've also updated my blog, It's more humorous than helpful :) thefatgirlthin.blogspot.com

Today I had a very bad morning and normally I would've gone to a restaurant and eaten some comfort food but instead I went to the gym. I have never felt so good! I also did 4km on the elliptical in 35 mins which is a new record for me!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
