So, tonight I needed to run some errands and I'm not supposed to drive for a week, so my husband and I ran them together. Then he asked me where I wanted to eat dinner....I couldn't resist....Mexican Food!! Since I'm only on soft/pureed food, I ordered a cup of Tortilla Soup and one corn tortilla with hot sauce, I couldn't believe I felt full after such a small amount of food! And boy did it taste good.
I've been walking a little everyday now, but still holding at 216 lbs. Maybe tomorrow I'll see a new/better number on the scale! I'm trying to watch my carb intake now that I have gotten my protein intake back up to the correct range. Hopefully that will help some.
All but one of my steri-strips is off...yay! Now my stomach doesn't itch from the strips rubbing against my clothes. All the incisions that I can see look good for just being a week out from surgery. The only one that hasn't lost it's strip, is the incision where the port was placed, but it won't be much longer on that one.
Until next time,
Lisa B.
You are doing great Lisa! Awesome about having some Mexican food :) I bet it tasted amazing ...
ReplyDeleteKeep doing what you are doing and the numbers will come. There are about a billion factors that go into that scale number and they don't always make sense. You can also take measurements and keep taking pictures too. Sometimes when I don't see the scale move like I want for a period of time, I will measure or look at a picture and see the changes there.
Hang in there girl, you are making it!!
Love you!
