VSG May 18th 2011
I had my surgery last week and things are going well.
I live in Canada and have gone through the weight wise program.
I started in the program back in Jan 2010. weighing in at 329.6.
The day before surgery *may 17th 2011* i was 287.7
As of yesterday i am 278.9
i have a great support group here in Edmonton and i found myself very prepared. I was expecting it to be alot harder than it actually was. my biggest issue in the hospital was i had a reaction to the liquid codine they were giving me.
today is exactly one week since surgery and i have not let it slow me down. I am doing grocery shopping and walking and window shopping and going to soccer games and working bingos , going to friends houses, walking with kids to park, helping at the kids school.
the only exception is.. i do need my 2 or 3 hour nap every day.
what im having a hard time with ... is the eating and drinking. I am in no way getting the amount of water i need or food. im up around 745-8... i have a 3 hour nap in the day... and im in bed by 10. how do i fit in 2000 of water and 60 g of protein?? and im not allowed shakes...
