I had my first post op apt and nut class today. I was released to move to puréed food ! I was so excited. I puréed some baked chicken, about 1/8 of a cup and figured I wouldn't be able to eat it all Oh. It was so good to have something with flavor!! Ate it all and still hungry! So I fixed 1/8 c Beans puréed. That too was wonderful but still no sense of fullness. I decided not to eat any more at that point. I though maybe I would have those same sensations others are having that won't let them get in all their liquids and Protein but still no "stop" signals. I have noticed I am not hungry as much so that is helping. Dr was pleased with my progress so far and said to go slow.

When I was reading the previous posts, I was surprised at how many were cold because, I'm having these hot flushing spells and wondered if anyone else was.... Guess not!!! :)

I went to the Dr today. My incisions were infected. So I'm on antibiotics. Today released for pureed foods and I think I ate to much at a family dinner tonight . I've never had this but I have chest pains. It feels caught in my throat. Such a lesson. Never again! It hurts.

I am the same way now. I am always cold but. My doctor said it was due to the hormones and the rapid weight loss but this should subside.

I'm happy to hear that.

For me, I was worried that for some stupid reason all this Water I have to down would stretch my pouch, Dr said it won't. Pouch is like a funnel. Fluids run right thru it. (Which i already new but needed the confirmation) So most of the items on the liquid diet will not stretch the pouch. It makes sense. But since I'm having to down 90oz of fluids + a meal, I didn't know what to think cuz it goes down so easily n fast.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
