Hi All. I just thought I would check in and report my good news! I am 50 days post op and 45 pounds down today! I feel like I have an extremely long way to go, but I am very happy with my progress so far.
I am finally feeling somewhat normal eating except I have weird trapped gas when I eat. I feel this painful need to burp but I can't until around 30 minutes after I eat. I have always been a very fast eater and I think I have not modified that behavior enough. I need to slow way down. So in addition to weight loss, my goal for Feb is to slow down my eating and chew more thoroughly. I think if I do that, I will be able to better identify when I am full. I struggle with that still. I usually end up one bite too many because I can't find that satisfied feeling anymore. I will get the hang of it though.
In other news, the real feel outside is -12 here in in Sunny PA. I am ready for this polar vortex to pass. Hope you all are staying warm!
