Hello friends! I'm on phase 3 of the post-op plan from my doctor. I'm invited to try some salad and vegetables and more texture in my protein. Chew, chew, chew is my new mantra!
I was dying for a crisp cool salad! I got one, loved it! Ate a tiny bit of it with chicken and I was full. I know that protein always comes first. Salad just fills the stomach with little nutrition. 6 weeks out and I think I'm adjusting well to having a restricted intake. I feel like I'm part of a secret sisterhood...secret society? The nurse practitioner at my docs office told me she got a sleeve a couple years ago. She looked fantastic! My dental hygienist had it done. We're everywhere!
Before I retired last year, a group of 7 employees from different departments had a brown bag lunch in the conference room each week. They seemed secretive about it. My co-worker attended. I should have noticed that they were all losing weight! Originally, I felt jealous thinking they were on a special company project. They were all post surgery folks!
