Eager

Yesterday marked one month since my gastric sleeve surgery. It feels like it has been a year! The good news is I have already lost 52 pounds since my strict pre-op diet began six weeks ago. I don’t really feel different, but my clothes fit better.
My brain and stomach are still fighting…but now my stomach has the upper hand. He doesn’t let my brain stuff too much food in. It’s still hard at times to stop eating after a few bites, but I’m getting better at it.
I’m eager to have my follow-up with the doctor. It should have been next week, but because of the holiday, I don’t see him until July 8. I really hope he will clear me for more physical activity. Right now all I’m allowed to do is walk. I want to get to the gym and start using the weight machines, as well as ride my bike.
