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!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
