Into Week Four.....

And what a result. My clothes are starting to hang off me. I've not got many that fit properly now and I'm still to shrink into the clothes that I had when I was thin before so I'm starting to look a bit baggy around the seams. I put a top on this morning and it was huge, I used to wear it regularly to work and I don't think I'll be wearing it again. I'm not going to be buying too much too soon, no point really is there.

Things are still going great food wise and I'm now on the mashed soft food stage. This is slightly more exciting than purees and I'm finding it easy to go out for dinner and find something on the menu I can eat. By the new year I'll be back onto proper crunchy food again. Can't wait to be able to eat salad again lol.

Nearly 2 Weeks Out....

And I feel fabulous. No pain, bit uncomfortable if I eat too much but that's how it's supposed to be so not complaining. I've progressed from from milk, tea and coffee to thinned down purees now. Chicken tikka massala with the fat removed and then pureed and added to mash, milked down to make it very sloppy. Delicious and today Oh my goodness, what a lunch. Pureed baked beans, grated cheese and half a slice of ham, heated in the microwave and pureed again wit a little water. Definitely having that again and full of protein too. I think the worse thing is trying to drink 1 1/2 litres of water. I've never been a big drinker and I have to drink it so slowly now that I just don't get round to it. I solved the cold drink problem and brought a thermo mug which has helped an awful lot and today through the post arrived my baby bowl that I can fill with boiling water and kept my lunch toasty hot without me having to re-heat it in the microwave half way through.

I've also been doing some excersise. Well if you can call it that, I caught the bus into Wallington and walked home afterwards. Only about a mile but more than I've done in a good while. I've lost 81b since the op, 36 since I signed up for WW in the summer. Not bad eh. More later...
