Well, it seems all the difficulties I encountered the first 8-10 weeks are finally subsiding and I am doing really well! Exercise is my new LOVE - this is exactly the transfer of addiction I was hoping for!! (haha) I have lost 50% of my weight - only 66 lbs. til I hit my goal.....amazing

Taking some time for ME :-)

I'd like to say Thanks to you OH buddies who have reached out via email and blog comments to tell me not to rush back to work just yet. Today I let the office know I will make an attempt on Thursday 9/17, as long as I feel up to it... and I must say that I feel better having finally made that decision. Now I no longer have anything hanging over my head - and I can worry about more important things like , um, getting all my fluids in each day :-) Today one of my best friend's came over with her weight watcher's cookbook and we found a bunch of great recipes to make and freeze. These are going to be great since I chose things that have flavor and can be pureed easily and frozen. This way, when I do go back I will have portioned containers of healthy food to grab when I need to and I will be able to stay on track and juggle work and RNY...hahaha!
Well thanks again everyone for the support!

...and I am very excited that I have lost 11.3 lbs. Actually the word AMAZED is more like it. I just kept staring at the number in disbelief. Over the past several years my PCOS has made weight loss atttempts seem so fruitless I guess I didn't really believe that even this surgery would do the trick, but that assumption has been challenged and happily overcome!!
I have to say I had many unrealistic beliefs prior to surgery, like the belief I would be back to work by today....What the ****was I thinking??? It was the guilt of taking time for myself, doing anything just for me that would cause others to work harder or be inconvenienced......violins please? :-) Well, I have taken the first step to overcome that one by delaying my return to work at least 2 more days........will I go back on Monday??? We will see.....
