240.5





Happy 2 month anniversary to me! Two months ago today I had my surgery. August 4 I weight 269.9. August 7 I weighed 274.5. I had my 2 month post surgery appointment last Friday and my ANRP said I was doing really well with weightloss. I feel good. I still have my right side pain (the reason I had the surgery) but I have joined the Y and am swimming. I ran away from Eli yesterday for the first time. I am doing more, getting out of the house more and am over all a happier Andi. I have not gone to try to go back to work yet. My goal is to be able to touch the floor without pain. I have been drinking and I need to stop. It is worse than before in the respect that I am trying not to get too many carbs so I am making very strong drinks. I do use diet cranberry juice so I shouldn't worry about it so much and just make weaker drinks or stop drinking.

Food consumption is weird and sometimes frustrating. Some foods make me sick. Salmon and some chicken I think. I can eat a lot of bad foods just fine but not some healthy foods that I would like to be able to eat. Today I made some broccoli soup. I steamed some broccoli and carrots in chicken broth. I blended them in my immersion blender. I added a few tablespoons of Rotelle and blended more. I topped my soup off with a little freshly grated Ramano. It was good.

I do feel hungry a lot and that is frustrating. For that part I wish I could have had the sleeve gastrectomy surgery.
