So. I'm now 3 weeks out, and I can't tell I had anything done. The only time I ever feel "pain" is when I get hungry, then my stomach lets me and anyone else in the vicinity know about it. It also hurts, it cramps like spasms or something. I hate it, but it goes away as soon as I get something in my tummy.
I've been walking a lot and I've been really busy. I have a ridiculous amount of energy and stamina. I read where some people are still down at 3 weeks, or are still in pain. I just haven't had that which means I'm really lucky, or something isn't right. I'm chosing to think I'm lucky.
Today I had cottage cheese for breakfast. And I had a baked potato with some broccoli cheese soup for lunch. I ate about 1/2 of it and I was stuffed. I'm learning to quit when I'm full. It's weird because sometimes I can't tell if I'm full, or if my stomach just hurts. I quit eating just in case. Lunch was at 11:30 and so at 4pm I had a rumble in my tummy and started to hurt in my back and my stomach. I came home and had my old standby, tomato soup. I will probably have some beans later on.
Tomorrow night we are going out to dinner before my sisters graduation. It looks like we're going to Outback. I guess I need to get on their website and find out what I can have.
I'm down 20lbs since I started the pre op diet. But I've lost inches, I'm down a size and thisclose to another size. It seems that the constant walking and running around and increasing my calories has helped me drop pounds. It's coming off pretty steady, but not too fast. I'm ok with that.
