So far so good I guess! Doc said I need to be getting 80oz of Fluid in before my next visit in a month, and that if the only thing I can stomach right now is cottage cheese he's fine with me eating it all day long because it's a great source of Protein. He said if that's all I can eat and I can handle only eating that, then just eat cottage cheese and occasionally try to add in something else until I feel like Steve the Sleeve (I felt like he needed a name) can handle more than that. Other than that he didn't really seem concerned about my progress.
The one thing I did find strange is that when I asked him what my goal is he said I didn't have one. He said that he doesn't care about the weight loss because whether I do everything right or nothing right I will lose weight. He did say though that he's more concerned with me doing things the right way because if I don't, I'll gain it all back.
Also, when I told the nurse I was pureeing Soups she said that that was eating and drinking at the same time - Has anyone heard that? I had the urge to tell her she didn't know what she was talking about but I resisted.
So that's that I suppose. I guess I was expecting more guidance from the Dr or something..
