The best thing is...

The best thing about this surgery is that I don't feel 'hungry'.  My mind is not always thinking about where food is going to come from or what I can eat next.  I am so eternally greatful for this surgery I cannot even express my feelings with words.  The freedom is amazing!  The fact that I forget to eat is unbelieveable!  The fact that I have cooked my family supper every night since I got home and have not once felt the urge to jump into it and eat like a pig is great!  The fact that I drank 1/2 c of soup yesterday and felt too full surprises and delights me.  I am so glad that I chose the sleeve.  My only 'complication' has been getting to know my body and when it is hungry.  The first few days I had such bowel cramps.  I learned that that means eat something silly!  LOL!  This morning when I got up I weighed myself.  289.7!  I haven't been that since before the twins were born!

 

Thank you Dr. Birch!  You are my hero!
