How is the overnight training going? I finally feel like I am healing now. I only worked a few days last week. I am back to my normal 10 hour days this week. I take a good nap at lunch and feel better than last week. Are you having trouble getting in Protein and fluids now that you are back to work?

Overnight training went well now I am on day shifts. It is definitely harder to get all my protein in with work, but hopefully Tuesday I can start pureed foods. I'm not tired but the last couple days the left side of my stomach was a little sore must be the moving around so much and the healing. Luckily my days are 9 hours for now. I'm exhausted physically by the end of my shift. How are your fluids?

Are y'all measuring your food? I keep seeing posts they say things like, "I can only eat 2oz of chicken", etc.

I honestly have no idea how man ounces of food I'm eating right now! I know it's not much but I don't know exactly.

If you are, how are you measuring food? Thanks!

I have these prep bowls that have measurements on the side, so I measure out 1 or 1/2 serving and eat what I can. Whatever is left lets me know how much I ate.

I'm being very careful about recording my food. My nutritionist will want a report in December, so I will have it for her. Plus, I want to make sure I'm getting enough Protein.< /p>

I'm doing pretty well on my Protein and fluids, but i still feel TIRED. I push myself through the day, but my left side hurts by the late afternoon and by bedtime, I'm beyond exhausted.

I feel like I should be feeling better by now and I'm frustrated. :(

Good job!! I have lost 24 pounds also. I am amazed at the difference that I feel already. I look forward to the next 100 pounds going away.

Don't get frustrated!!! It is kicking my but getting back in gear with work, grad school and my family. Remember we just had a major surgery. It is tough being back at work and we are still recovering. It will get better! Get some extra rest at night if possible. Soon we will be skinny and full of energy! :)

Sounds like a good plan. Are you having any trouble with any foods? So far the new foods I have added haven't given me any problems. I kept hearing about everyone's stomach gurgling, mine now does it with soft foods, especially meats.< /p>

I use small bowls that are 4oz. I am amazed now when I see others eating at how large their portions are. I can't believe how much I used to eat--all the time.

      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?
