here i am one month post op! restrictions on what i can eat are gone! normally, i would be going hog wild, but given the "dumping" episode, i havent. i drink a protein drink twice a day, so i make sure i get my 60-80 grams of protein every day. i just dont want to end up bald. there are some things that i try, cucumbers with a little bit of ranch, wheat thins. the biggest difference is the amount that i eat.
i am getting ready for a huge test of willpower! chad and i are going out to eat while we are out of town tomorrow night. there is no way i can get a whole dinner to myself, so i will have to get chad to get something good, so i can have a little. the old me, just thinks about what goodies the restaurant will have, the new me, is hoping that there is something i can have!
sometimes i feel like this eating to live stuff is for the birds! but then i try on jeans, that i wasnt able to wear a couple of weeks ago, and think, yeah, okay, good choice!! i can almost see a jawline, so we are making progress albeit slowly! its so foreign to me, to not want to eat all day, and when i go to the kitchen to actually eat something, (not usually because i am hungry, but bc i know i need to eat ) nothing ever really looks good! who knows, maybe that will change, as i start eating more.
