Sleeved Dec, 5th And Feeling Better Every Day!



Recommended Posts

I felt aweful the first two weeks, then the food cravings about drove me to kill for a steak, felt resentment when I came home and my wife and Mother were eating a ribeye with baked patatoe. LOL had to control my feelings on that scene. LOL really I did, felt betrayed.

Week 3 felt better and did some icefishing which included lots of walking in snow. Ran out of gas very fast, but much lighter on my feet. then got the flu and spent 2 days in bed and total of 6 days ill. vomiting, fever, chills, yuck!

Week 4 Went fishing again, felt better still, flu gone, slight chest cold hanging on. Energy started to come back on Sunday, No nap lol, Woke up at 5am this morning and on the go until a few minutes ago! Still feel good! Tummy still gets the nausea feeling during the day a little, but I'm feeling almost normal. LOL feels so good to say that. Had some friends over yesterday for the game and I cooked baked pike and deep fried bluegills, even had some baked pike, sooooooooooo good. Start foods that I can mash with a fork tomorrow, but I pushed it up 2 days as I feel so good. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh don't tell anyone. LOL Friends were amazed at what fills me up. They said "you can't be full, no way" They could not beleive it. But it's all good for me, I was full and that feels so good as I remember when I never got full, well at least until I ate all day. LOL

I see light at the end of the tunnel for sure and feels so good, I hope all of you have the same experience as I'm having or even better, because I worried about eatting so little and feeling full, like I was being cheated or something, but thats not the case at all. Feels good and the weight keeps coming off!!!!!!!!

Great! Keep up the hard work! It does get even better than this. Especially when your cloths start getting really baggy and you have to get new cloths, just to turn around and have to buy even smaller sizes. Love it! Happy New Year! LOL ;)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
