I started a food log today as a matter of fact. Today was about the typical way that I eat. I fell way short on protien and calories were tiny . I never thought about the fact that I was not eating enough. I may do this for a couple of weeks and then make an in between appointment to see my nut.

Hi ya'll

I had my revision from VBG to RNY back in November of 09. I had my surgery at MAMC by Dr. Martin. I saw him one time to set up the uppe GI and the next time I saw him we were schedualing my surgery. I had struggled with the stupid docs over at McCord for so long to send me to MAMC just to be checked out. I knew for a very long time something was not "right" with me.I threw up anytime I ate "real" food. This had gone on for years. I had finally given up. My opening was closed to the size of a pencil eraser. OMG!!! I quit smoking in April and then hurt my back and ballooned back up to 190. I was doing a good job of maintaining till then. I feel like I was rushed through the whole procedure. I only saw Dr. Martin ONE time while in the hospital. I saw him at 3 weeks for about 3 minutes. Told not to come back till Feb. I am frustrated because I am very active( feel really good now that I can eat), running 3 miles/ 3times a week and go to the Y for TBC classes 2 days a week. I have barely lost 20 pounds and 16 of that was gone before my 3 week appointment. I am so frustrated right now that I am sitting here eating crackers. What do I do? I am following the food plan(except for this minute) and getting my protien and water and blah blah blah. So why have I stalled at less than 2 months.
Thanks for reading.
