I am officially scheduled for gastric bypass Wednesday December 04 with George Eid at West Penn hospital. Any surgery twins?????

Friday at work was rough! I made the mistake of wearing boots with a slight heel, not being strict with myself on drinking, and forgetting how large the campus is. Today I’m on the couch and resting. I am going to need to plan better and be more disciplined heading forward.

Anyone else having dizzy spells? I was sleeved 12/20 and started having them the last week

A few times today actually. Only happened a couple times since surgery like the first week or 2 but happened multiple times today while out and about with the family.

I’m doing well. Started a general diet on Sunday, January 26 (my birthday). I went out for my birthday with my husband for lunch and ordered a grilled chicken avocado . Ate half of the grilled chicken (about 1 1/2 oz) and avocado without bread and 3 small chunks of fresh fruit. It seemed to sit heavy with me the rest of the day and I did not eat again, but did a protein shake for my birthday dinner. I had made a slow cooker pork roast for dinner, but couldn’t eat it.

I tried to eat a bit of reheated pork roast for dinner tonight but after about 4 tiny bites and 2 bites of roasted carrots, up it came. It’s probably too soon. I’ve done chicken, fish and eggs without a problem.

I had my sleeve on Dec 18th,2019. I have lost 27 pounds and over a month out. I’m still adjusting to the whole new mindset and eating ways. I’m excited about this journey. I still have two shakes a day and now that I’m to soft foods I’ve been sticking primarily to protein. I have even got meat sticks and cheese I eat on. That’s pretty much all I do for now and try to get my water in as much as possible.
