Post op is going fairly well still, now a little over 3.5 weeks out. This morning saw 317.0 on the scale, so weight loss continues.
Eating is going OK. Not quite hitting the 90g protein, but am averaging 70ish. Almost always have a 27g BA shake for breakfast. Have been eating a light salad with a lot of deli turkey, or as I did thur, a hamburger patty. Dinner is whatever, kids stuff and work has been crazy so we're not on a very good "cook dinner" routine. Have eaten chicken fajita nachos, chicken quesadillas, lot of tuna. Trying to focus on higher protein, lower carbs, without obsessing. Goal is 90g protein, less than 50g carbs per day for now.
Keeping up fairly well with all of the vitamins with the exception of the iron. Need to get more diligent with the iron. I've decided I don't really like the BA calcium chewy bites as much as the Caltrate ones. Going to try to get more of them (bought a pack at Target).
Had a good NSV (NSV= non scale victory) yesterday as I wore some 44 waist Arizona jeans I hadn't been in for over a year. Yes, they were snug in the waist, but otherwise they were fine and I wore them all day at work (yay casual friday). Its good news since my only pair of jeans I could wear before surgery split up the crotch on the way to the hospital the day before surgery.
So, will keep on keeping on. Next followup with dr is Nov 15th when they will draw labs.
