13th-ers.....it's two weeks!!



Hey all!
I am also a 13er, and I am feeling great! I was at 348 when i went into the hospital, 353 when i came out. This morning I was 328!!! 25 pounds in 15 days. I feel great. I am back at the gym 5 days a week....2 miles on the treadmill, then 30 minutes on the stationary bike or 30 minutes in the pool.
I too am on the pureed diet, and I feel pretty good. I'm drinking the Nectar Proteins, and working hard at getting the 64 oz of fluids in each day. It really is a full day process! Another 10 days and I will progress to soft solid foods! Can't wait!!! 300, here I come!
YEA Kelly!
sounds like you're doing great!
I was told that i needed to 8 oz over and hour (8 times a day) waiting at least 1/2 hour before eating.
I can't wait until i have my first appt.(Dr. Kendrick didn't want to see me until 3 weeks) I'd like to get an offical number for my weight loss. My scale says i'm down 18 lbs though.....I'll take it!
Keep up the good work!

Hey fellow 13th-ers. I can't believe its been two weeks already. I started back to work on Monday and I'm feeling fine. I am still doing the liquid/soft foods thing. Not having too much trouble except I tried a 1/2 piece of chicken (boneless skinless breast patty) and that did me in for the day. Won't do that again. Having problems with the protiens as well. I am concerned because my doctor told me I need those to loose the weight. I don't know about the weight loss at this time because my scale at home is broken however at 8 days it was down 12 and 19 from my pre-op appointment. I had days of wondering what if this doesn't work but then after the 1/2 chicken breast did me in I knew it would be okay. I hope everyone is doing well and feeling fine. I feel hungry at times but then I realize that I only had a sugar free jello, baked potato and a popsicle all day. Go figure.
