Had my nutrition follow up today and even though it’s supposed to be another week before I’m out of soft foods, she said I was ready to go to “the final level.”
So now I’m on all foods, including hard/crunchy foods, with some restrictions (bread, rice, and pasta for a year, soda, etc.)
I celebrated with a grilled chicken club (no bun) and it was gooood! Granted I ate less than half of it, but it was still tasty. I do see some steak on my horizon though!
BUT…I’m not going to let this derail my plans. I’m still in a place where I’m not hungry often and can only eat a few ounces at a time, so I’m going to use this time to stay focused, and lose as much as I can.
I’m also off any lifting/exercise restrictions, so I will be hitting up the gym soon as well…gotta turn this saggy skin and muscle loss into something good.
(Also had a regular doc appointment yesterday and today labs came back and levels in normal range so things must be going good there too!)
Onward and upward!
