3 Week post op...feelin' pretty darn great!

Well, I am just over three weeks out and I can finally say, I'm feeling great!  The first week and a half, I seriously thought I was losing it...angry, sad, frustrated, grieving the food loss, etc...but now, 3 weeks out, I'm feeling good!  I think there is merit in not putting all the crap in my mouth that I was pre op...I have more energy (other than having a terrible head cold), am looking forward to the days (they're not dragging like they were) and am focused on getting lots of activity in to help these extra punds melt away...

Yea!!  I a feel the same way.  Everyday is better.  Congrats!!

I look forward to being 3 weeks out like yourself and feeling as good as you do!  You're an inspiration - letting me know that I won't feel rotten forever. 

After my horrible day with diarrhea yesterday - I actually feel pretty good today!  If it wasn't so cold I'd go for a walk.

Thanks!

Hi Kristina!

The first week or two are pretty rough, but I promise, it will get better every day...as crappy as you feel, try to get up and movin', even if just a little as that will help you feel better.
Look forward to hearing all about your success!

The two older kids have been sufering from cabin fever so I sent them to my in-law's house to spend the night.  I thought I'd be up to going to Wal-mart with the baby.  After and hour of walking around at all of the yummy-looking food that I can't eat I came home and I am BEAT!!  I brought in some things but left most of it for my husband to carry in when he gets home from work.  I really think I over-did it because my abdomen is really sore and I have one spot that is really tender and sore.  The good thing is I got some sugar-free jello  and some sugar-free dulce de lecha pudding in the ready-made cups!!  I'm so very tired of chocolate pudding and tomato soup.

Thanks again for your encouragement.
