So i'm 13 days post opp and I'm walking 2 miles a day. I feel great and can't believe the difference. I've not had any issue with my pouch or eating at all. I'm very mindful to only eat 6 OZ at a meal and no snacking at all. I'm getting about 50G of Protein a day and am trying to increase it. I put the strawberry flavored Protein powder in my yogurt or add the non flavored one to cottage cheese. I did make an awesome chicken salad using Fat Free Ranch Dressing and it turned out excellent. I also made egg salad and added protein power into the mix. I'm doing great and can't believe how good i'm doing. I don't have hunger like i used to. Last night I almost forgot to eat dinner...UMM That has never happened before. I'm already down a pants size and love the feeling. I've decided to only weigh myself every 7 days. I don't want to get hung up on the number but rather the feeling of having energy and clothes fitting. Good luck to all the JUNE Surgery folks! My Partner is having his surgery on Monday June 2nd. He is on the liquid phase now and already lost 15LBS. Its nice that he has decided to have it too so that we can both get healthy together. My next door neighbor noticed I lost weight and said something. He said well at least you won't have boxes of Dominos pizza anymore in the garbage bin...LOL

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement!

Congratulations to you!

I know how wonderful a feeling it is to be able to walk longer distances.

I think it's awesome that your partner is going to have surgery too.

You two will both have a new lease on a great journey into better health.

Keep us up to date on both of yours progress.

Take care.
