Hi all, I know I haven't been posting much, just busy I guess.  Well, Friday made four weeks since surgery.  I can't believe how quickly it went by.  I have to say looking back the first week was the hardest as far as head hunger.  I'm amazed how much my body has changed.  I have very few bad food cravings, my sense of smell is off the charts and the things I liked before somehow taste different.  I started purees on Sunday and I have to say it's more of a struggle than I anticipated.  Eggs are gross, seriously I craved an egg  and now I have all I can do to choke it down.  weird.... I made chicken salad, yummy, pureed spinach looks gross, but really what doesn't when pureed.  I also made ricotta and a litle sauce and ff cheese....YUMMY!  I have yet to get all meals in though.  I'm not forcing it.  I feel great.  I am so thankful that I've been given this opportunity to change my life.  I hope that for all of you pre ops out there, things go as well as they have for me.  I would NEVER go back.  Anyway, I've added some new pictures to my profile.  I see a little difference, can't wait to see what 130 lbs. looks like!!!!!  Love you all, hope you are enjoying your summer so far.  I agree with the previous posts....I do not feel like eating anything in the heat.  I have kept up with my protein shakes though.  Have a great day!!!!
