This week it was 3 mos since surgery. Looking back it feels like time went really fast but I know in the day to day it didn;t feel like it. I am in a routine, food wise, eating the same things. Can't tolerate chicken, any bread and throw up if eating too fast or more than 3 oz per meal. No cravings and really no hunger. I stalled at 3 weeks post-op for about 12 days but since then has been steady, about 3 lbs a week or 10-13 lbs a month. Fluids are still an issue and struggle to get in the recommended 64 oz/d. Protein intake avg around 60 g/d and still trying to get it up. Not good at taking my Calcium and multivit every day but know I need to. 50 lbs is good I think and people are noticing and hope to keep chugging away. Dropped 3 pants sizes. Finally got the surgery EOB and not happy how much I have to pay after what insurance covered, but it has been worth it. Hope all April buddies are doing great!!
