What a long couple of weeks...I need a vacation! Finally got rid of most of the IV's. Just one PICC line left in my right foot for my TPN and the OG tube which I try to imagine as a extra long straw connected to an endless milk margarita on the rocks with no sodium chloride. The good news today is that I restarted feeding on Mommy's milk, 1mL every 4 hours. The bad news is that Daddy is one step closer to losing the Biggest Loser/Gainer Challenge! Oh...it's back on and Baby Girl is hungry. You try not eating for over two weeks...I am going to be on that milk like a cop on a doughnut.
As you can see from the graph below, even being on the injured reserve list for two weeks I am dominating the dojo. Daddy had a good drop the days after my surgery but that yo-yo dieting is not sustainable. At his age, he needs to focus on one pound a week, smooth and steady. I predict that I will be pulling away in early July and packing on the ounces as my feeding increases. Based on my weight today of 1380 grams, I have gained 500 grams about 1.1 pounds. Daddy needs to drop 5.5 lbs to keep pace. Fat chance (no pun intended) with Daddy weighing in at 201.5 lbs.
