Went for my almost 5 week post op visit



Recommended Posts

I am cleared to eat anything I can handle. I am down a total of 30 pounds and feel great. I lost 6 pre-op.

I made Parmasean cheese crisp tonight. They are a little piece of heaven. I enjoyed chewing something crispy and it was not bad for me. :)

Take Shredded parm cheese and put into bottom of muffin tins, just enough to cover the bottoms. bake for ABOUT 6 minutes at 300 degrees, watch carefully. They will stiffin up after they are out of oven.

I suppose this is old hat to a lot of you but, just incase someone does not know.

Tomorrow I am going to have a naked cheese enchilada and some Beans.

I eat every 2-3 hours as of now, almost all Protein. 2-3 ounces at a time. I am trying to eat less frequently but get hungry.

Everyone lose's weight at different speeds. I had over 120lbs to lose which makes a difference too.

      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!!
