3 weeks down!

Written Wednesday July 7, 2010**(See note below)

So I've reached the halfway point on my journey to real food since surgery!

It's been a long and windy road so far. I've had a few emotional breakdowns over the last week or two where I have come to really hate the liquid diet stage!!! Thankfully I only have one more week of liquid and then I get to move on to puree!!! Score! Then on that stage for 2 weeks and once that's done….REAL FOOD!!!!

So here's the deets! Current weight as of 5 mins ago 117.5 kg (259 lbs). Here's the kicker though. On Monday when I weighed myself it was at 116.4. So I have gained a kg (approx. 2 lbs) in the last 2 days. Not quite sure how I did that. But oh well. And I've even been getting in like 7 or 8 of the suggested 9 meals. What I have noticed is over the last week I've kind of stopped recording my food intake on Excel. So maybe I need to get back to doing that to see if I truly am getting enough calories and proteins as I should be. Here's to hoping my last week on liquids goes a bit better.

Total weight loss as of today…slightly over 8 kgs (approx. 18 lbs).
