2 weeks out and lost --lbs.

My last weigh in was 415lbs.  I went to my post op this past Friday, and I am down to 389lbs.  I am finally out of the 400lbs range.

I had the RNY July 28, 2008.  I am so happy.  Doc gave me the ok to have protein.

I lost 26lbs total and still going.

Anyone eating protein?  What do you have and what amount?  Did you have fruits or vegetaables?

Well, my journey has just begun.

Good job Rozzy! Can't wait to join you on the losers bench!!

Thanks Nahealani I am excited about my new journey, but it still takes a lot of other things.  EXCERCISE!!!!!!   I am going to the YMCA, and today will be my second week of workout.  Jus taking it one step at a time.

I do not want too much saggy skin.  My next visit to the doc will be the end of this month.  Which will be one month visit.  I do not weigh myself.  I just go to the doc to get the results.  Although my family noticed the HUGE changes. 

AuntyJENN, after the liquid phase for two weeks.....I appreciate any taste of protein.  I will try to take it slow.....I was just rushing my eating....I do chew, chew, chew.  The thing is that I have a habit of eating and drinking.....that's when I get my pain....I was suppose to wait 30 min. before drinking fluids.

My workout today was okay....I just felt so tired.  I pushed myself, but I just feel out of it.  I ate boiled egg, and started throwing up.  I probably was rushing it.

eating and drinking, that was a problem of mines too..

i would ALWAYS drink a diet coke or 2 with my meals pior to surgery...and then, i couldent drink anything..yuk!

i heard of a trick to help with this...

When you make your meals get a shot glass...and fill it with water....and that is your water for your meal... seems silly- but i think it worked....


Good luck!

Right on!! congrats on the awesome job!!!

adding the protien in is like a whole new world eh.? nothing is the same- but you learn to really enjoy what little you get to eat-

Start slow, and keep to your doc's diet!!

congrats again!!
