3 Weeks Out



Recommended Posts

My day consists of One slice of boars head deli chicken with a slice of baby swiss cheese rolled in the middle. I nuke it in the microwave for 20 seconds.. That's Breakfast..

Between Breakfast and lunch I have a

Protein powder shake mixed with 1

percent milk.

lunch time I have a small strawberry wild shake

with added whey powder from Jamba juice...

For dinner I have chicken or beef

broth.

--------

Today I ventures away from my broth

dinner and tried three bites of grilled

chicken with goat cheese.. PAINFUL felt like contractions in a snake like moveme.

what's everyone else eating?

I take a protonix and Gummy Vitamins every morning. My Water intake is kinda low. I try and try but It almost hurts.... or maybe it's me

self sabatoging. I have always had a low Water intake. I think I am a bit twisted and like

feeling dehydrated.

I have hit the three week stall no weight loss. please let me know what you guys are eating so I can have more ideas :)

I guess I am one of the lucky ones.. When they moved me to soft foods, I started tasting everything that I wanted too and so far I haven't had a problem with anything except spicy stuff and lemonade cookies... I couldn't tolerate any of the Protein Drinks so I had to find another way to get my protein... now I eat what I want, just very damn little of it...

I was only allowed full liquids at 3 weeks but when I was allowed grilled chicken it was uncomfortable. I remember just being able to take the tiniest bites. I can tell you, it does get better but slowly.

Maybe try it again later and see how you do. I'm able to tolerate just about everything now but this wasn't the case in the beginning.

Best of luck and enjoy!! :)

      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.

      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!!
