25 Pounds Gone!!!

Two weeks pre op diet and two weeks post op =  25 poiunds down!!!!  YEAH.

Things I have learned to date: 
-I still am not a good walker, but am trying when the weather cooperates.

-I am having trouble figuring out what my pouch wants in the morning.  Eating right after getting up is not going well.  If I drink something first  it's better but then I have to wait to eat.  Still playing with the morning routine

-I was a 4-6 cups of coffee a day gal and had to have one when I got up in the morning.  Now I can't seem to drink it and really can't handle it in the mornings.  I seem to have lost my taste for it
and even though I don't want to drink it I am mourning my coffee rituals and the comfort of my morning cup. 

-The only thing that I can't really eat well yet is toast, so that will wait for a while.  Fish, chicken and ground beef is all good as long as I chew well and eat small portions.  Veggies and fruits good, haven't had much rice or potato and have not tried pasta yet at all.

-Still tire easy and need a nap or I can't think straight

-It's getting harder to get my water in each day.  Always has been a challenge for me though.

- Still no regrets, this has been easier than I expected so far and I love stepping on the scale and watching the number go down bit by bit.  Best decision I have made in a long time.

Awesome progress Alle!! You should be very proud of your hard work so far. Its a learning curve day after day and it can only  get better. Keep it up!

way to go.as for the pouch not loking stuff in morning get used to it.mine still doesnt like anything before 10 am.i usually have my coffee then think about eating around 10ish.i drink my protien coffee early when i get up and go from there

Protein coffee??? Do you mean Click?  Where do you get it?

yes and no.i use click and order it @amason.i get it delivered to neche as i live 20 mins away so its super easy to get it.there are reciepes online for you to make your own protien coffee.i use click because it just simpler as you just add water or milk mix and heat for hot coffee or you can add ice and make a frapp.are you going to the m& g

Yes the M&G is at my place this Saturday.  I would love to make my own if you have a recipe.

omg brain fart.i completely forgot whos house it was at.loli will find some reciepes and bring them to the m&g.i can also bring a bit of click too for those who want to try before buying

I found starting off the day with a warm drink like a tea really helped get things going.
