Ok so I've been home 4 full days and I think Im getting into a pretty good groove with my liquid intake. Its probably still not enough but from what I've been told most people struggle with getting in the needed protein. I'm doing my best!
I feel pretty good today - the past few days I've been very slow to get up and moving but today I awoke at 6:45 am, chilled in bed for a lil bit, simply because there was no reason to get up and now here it is 10am and I've cleaned the kitchen, started the dishwasher and I'm making this entry. Not bad, most I've done without feeling wipped out!
The bathroom scale reads 222 today - I've lost just a hair more than 20 pounds ... 10 of those are per-surgery so I guess I'm doing pretty good. That's 20 pounds in 17 days. I do not want to squander this gift, this opportunity. I'm going to work very hard to be the healthiest me!! I've been researching high protein snacks and meals and found quite a few that I can easily transition into my day once I go back to work. I'm not hungry now, and I'm told a true feeling of hunger takes a while, but I can tell when I'm empty and just need something. Im not hungry but I do feel the need for something ... something that needs to be chewed or perhaps just a new flavor! LOL it will be easier - and I'm going to work. I will be successful!!
