Started on my pureed/mushy stage today - woohoo, looking forward to egg salad and something with a bit of texture at last. This morning for brekky I had 1 vitabrits with 1 cup of milk (see photo) warmed up. I waited a couple of minutes for the vitabrit to break up and it basically turned to mush (hence the "mushy" stage!). Must say it was a nice change to my optifast for breakfast. Another thing I am trying to do and have started today, and that is to eat at the table and not in front of the TV. I have a very bad habit of sitting in front of the TV or computer while I eat - Well, no longer! Sitting at the table makes sure I am sitting up straight and my stomach isn't crunched over.
I must say I haven't really done any exercise yet, apart from maybe walking around shops while shopping. I do have a treadmill in the garage and the first couple of days home I managed to get on there and do 5mins at a time. I shall get back onto that asap I think. I want to be able to take my dog for a walk but at the moment my stomach is still a bit sore and she has a tendency to pull. There have been a couple of times in the past I have actually fallen down and grazed my knees so I don't want to risk that at the moment.
Can't believe it is already past 1 week since lapband surgery - it seemed to go soooo slow waiting for it to happen but it has now passed and I'm on my way to a healthier, slimmer me - can't wait.
