Here are a few of them......
1. ONLY clear liquids for first week. Can I say, jello and broth get REALLY old?!!!
3. 2 T of sugar free jello and 2 T of broth are more than I can eat in one sitting and it takes 20 min or so to get even half that down. , the tiny cup of cole slaw before is bigger than both the jello and broth combined. LOL
4. Sip, sip, sip, sip!!! I still have to down 64 oz of water a day, but I can only get down about 4 oz an hour.....it proves to be quite the challenge!
Even with all the changes I have made already, they have not been hard to make! It has not been a easy surgery, not an easy recovery, but regardless, I would do it all over again!
Now, I am going to be a very brave person and begin posting weights.....ahhhh...cannot believe I am doing this, however, I feel it is important for accountability purposes. Don't judge me.....lol
So here goes.....
Start weight-310 pounds
Weight on day of surgery- 300 pounds
6 days post-op- 287 pounds
Total weight loss- 23 pounds
Weight loss from surgery-13 pounds
