Tomorrow will mark 2 weeks post-op. I weighed in yesterday and was 1.5lbs heavier. I'm not at all concerned, I know the body's weight changes and I surely didn't gain 1.5lbs of fat in a week on a 1200 or less calorie diet. Things have been going pretty good, had my first bad day yesterday. Ate too much and ended up in a violent vomiting session, felt alot better when that was over. I'm getting tired of the Full Liquid diet but I have at least another week before I introduce soft/puree foods. To me the wait will be so worth it. I'm going to take my time with recovery and won't return to work until the new year. I usually work 10-14 hours a day and I haven't even been cleared to start exercising yet.
This recovery is more mental than physical for me at this point, seeing fast food commercials on TV and remembering how much I love food. It's not that I can't ever have it again, it's just going to take some time and smaller portions. I hope that by Christmas I'll have 30lbs gone, that would be an excellent gift to me.
