Now the fun begins!!

Hi girlies, I just got back from my Dr. appointment...He was very pleased with my progress so far.  He also lifted all restrictions, but told me to still not over do it.  So that means I can start working out and lifting my little girl again and I start working again tomorrow evening.  I can't wait to start my exerise videos again.  Have any of you heard of THE FIRM exercise videos?   They are awesone.. Real results super quick.  I really enjoy them.  I am on my second week of purees and it is going much better.  Eggs still seem to be a problem, but everything else is going smoothly.  I have such a day ahead of me.  I REALLY need to clean, and laundry and all that stuff because when I work I'm just to tired to get much done and that was before this surgery!  It's hard to find time to eat when I'm so busy.   One more thing.....smells....I can't get passed some food because of the way they smell!  Is that weird?  Like the egg issue is mostly because of the smell and they taste almost sour to me.... Weird......Got to go , hope you all have a great day!!!!!

Keela have you tried the egg beaters or all whites. Those are what I do instead of eggs. May be worth a shot. Good Luck with your start back to work. Just take it easy to start with.

Good for you!! Haha, I can't eat tuna yet, for that very reason, the smell.  It was my fav sandwich before surgery, too, oh well lots of other stuff to eat. Good luck with the rest of purees and congratulations on a good Dr. F/U.!! hugs, Kate

Sounds like you are doing AWESOME Keela!  Keep up the good work!  Smells are still a big issue for me too....If it smells weird, I can't get it past the nose!  It's amazing how much our tastes change after surgery!  With eggs.....just pinch your nose and swallow!  JK!!!  It'll get better in time!  Don't overdo the working out or working!!!!!!  Take it slowly and ease back into it!  (Trust me....I speak from experience!!!!!!!!)  Congrats!  Ruth

Keela, great job, good luck at work tomorrow.  I wish I could share my experiences, but I am able to eat it all,  I can't wait to get a few more fills so I can do better with my control.  I do start the days off good then loose it after supper time.  good luck, keep it up... Cheryl

Cheryl, thanks!  Don't be so hard on yourself,  the battle we all face is not an easy one.  The fills will help but in the meantime stay positive and don't beat yourself up for a moment of weakness.  We all have them....HUGS
