3 Weeks Post-Op!

Well, I am 3 weeks post-op today! It seems a lot longer than that! I am on solid foods..but I chew, chew, chew. As of Sunday, I am down 25 lbs. I am pretty happy with that. I am really hoping that I will hit 30 lbs by next week. I am almost getting in all my water, some days I do, and some days I fall short. I know I am not getting enough protien. Although, everything I eat is full of protien. I am also not getting quite enough exercise. It's a constant work in progress. Today is mine and my DH's anniversary. So, on Sunday night we went out to celebrate. DH was craving a steak, so we went to a steak house. Anyway, I ended up ordering a cup of Chilli, and I figured if it wasn't enough, I would eat a few pieces. Anyway, I couldn't even eat half of cup of Chilli!! I had left overs on a cup of Chilli! It just amazes me! I have to Thank God for allowing me to do this! I know I need HIS strength to continue on. Anyway, I have to thank everyone here for being supportive and always answering my stupid questions! I am sure I will have more as time moves on! I wish everyone the best! God Bless!

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!! Those 25 lbs are just the beginning of a wonderful cycle of weight loss. I am 2 weeks post-op today. Down 27lbs. I am still on pureed foods. I find it hard to get in all the water and protein I need in a day. There just aren't enough hours in a day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATS!!! On your anniversary. You are a braver person than I to be going to a steak house already!!!!!! That chili sure sounds good!
