5 weeks out, first day of solid foods....

it was my friend's baby shower. food, cupcakes, and candy galore. Open bar.

I did pretty well with my food.

i didnt drink any liquor, bypassed the cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries...no bread, potato salad

but she had a candy bar...and i couldn't pass on the blow pops sad.gif

sour apple blow pops are my fave....i took two. I had one at the shower. The other is in my bag

I don't feel bad though....it was 60 cals and I tracked it. Still under my cals and carbs. Still focused

Life after WLS

on the up side I got so many positive comments on how good i lookedbiggrin.gif

That's nothing. One or two of those aren't going to kill you. Be careful with the gum though. They say chewing it can add air to the stomach.

I'm 5 weeks out and just had 2, 2oz glasses of wine with a ton of ice. That was my first try with it and I drank it over about 2 hours and it was WONDERFUL! I think a Blow Pop is fine, too!

I think with all of the other things you could have splurged on, you made the "BETTER" choice considering!

Good job!!

Kelly :D

I'm just reeling that someone would pass by a cupcake for a blow pop. Reeling. And not even a grape blow pop. Oh mymy.

You're out in the real world. There are blow pops out there waiting to get ya. I sure hope it's a piece of pound cake that gets me!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
