Yay got at least 60gr of protein with out a shake today!



Recommended Posts

I am so happy to know that it is possible to meet Protein intake without shakes or drinks.< /p>

I hit 63gr today normally I will drink 2 shakes a day for the 60gr and any protein from food was a bonus.

Sorry just had to share with others that would understand, my boyfriend just looked at me with a blank face like I was a nut when I got excited over this. :)

The last time I got this excited was when I realized I had a collar bone ( My first NSV) :)

Happy New Year everyone!!! ( I know I am a little early)

I am still new to all of this (have a lot of learning to do) so I am sure I may be racking up somewhere else like carbs or calories and I shouldnt be, it was mostly the Snacks and today was my first day trying them but they are super high in calories and carbs so I think they may be an every other week snack lol. I am going to try adding cottage cheese, eggs, yougart...and see if I can reach at least 60gr again as these are foods that I also eat but haven't been logging everything in everyday (Shame on me).

      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!!
