Hello Friends,
Week 2 is almost over so decided to make an update. My energy level has stabilized not as tired as week 1. Still finding it hard to get my meals in, but I did find some Atkins chip snacks with protein and tasty. I'm down 13 lbs. I am very proud of my progress so far and have increased my water intake. I drink about 48oz at least but getting better at it....thank you Crystal Light. Oh and pickle spears are 5 calories if you want a healthy snack. So to the not so good, my anxiety is coming out and wondering if I will be able to care form my children how I should after surgery. Yes, I know recovery is only a couple of weeks but it's hard to let others help. Ok and TMI warning......the ugly part of pre-op, besides constantly having to pee, high protein diet has given me some unforeseen constipation. So if you are starting your journey remember to purchase a stool softener….. good luck on everyone’s journey
