33 days post op

Everybody has their own journey. Mine was over a year and half of contemplation. One last ditch diet effort that cost me $3500, ideal protein. It helped but again I gained it all back. So my operation was a success thanks to a top notch doctor and hospital. All the right meds. I won't deny the small sips of protein and water the first week were not fun. Left use shoulder and stomach pain lingered for me as I have fibro. However, I have overcome that and now. I started walking and increasing my exercise each week. I am beginning to feel good both physically and mentally. My head still is yearning for those pretty cakes/cupcakes, ice cream and and cookies but the desire in my stomach isn't their to consume. I did eat some gelato and it tasted so good I wouldn't deny. Because it tastes so good I are more than I should when a little would do for me. Uncomfortable and sick had to lay down. So remember the big lesson you can taste, don't overeat. I have lost 42 lbs. amazing life change. Good luck to all of you!
