I'm BACK !!!!!

Hi you guys....  Sorry for not giving any news since my surgery but I was busy...  Had my vsg on october 13 by dr.Atlas at Sacre Coeur and everything went well except that I was stuck with a drain for a week.  I'm slowly starting to eat soft foods but I still can't drink plain water either cold or room temp cause it hurts so much.  So my liquid intake is kinda low.  I'm loosing slowly but I think it's because I don't eat enough in a day and I don't take enough proteins.  But I started eating chicken and cheese so that should help.....  I hope....   I have lost 15 lbs before Optifast, 17 lbs with Optifast and since surgery, only 13 lbs!!!  I was hoping to loose more quickly but i'm kinda stuck.  Any suggestions to up it a little?  I'm so afraid, all this was for nothing and that it won' t work for me.

I'll keep you posted
