Six Months and counting
Apr 06, 2010
So... six months have passed and I'm feeling great. The weightloss is actually better than when I first had the surgery. I think the thyroid issue has a lot to do with it. It seems I need more protein than your average bear. So when I slack off the protein, the weightloss slows down.
I am getting the best inch loss I can hope for at this point. It would be great if the numbers dropped faster but I can't make them, I can only follow the program and let my body do it's thing. I'm actually enjoying the gym for the first time in my life.
I'll get some pictures on here eventually...

I'm feeling good and looking so much better. I think I'm way off track with my eating and I need to get a hold of it. I'm still losing but I'm eating major junk food and I'm craving sugar again. There are issue related to it but until I can address those with a natural medicine provider I have to work the system the way I know.
So this journey has been eye opening. I didn't know how much my excess weight was effecting my normally very high self esteem but it was. And I've noticed that these past few weeks of eating bad have also. I don't have as much energy and my allergies are flared up again. So back to the discipline and feeling better.
At least I know I'm looking better.

All is well and I am on the road to recovery! I feel a little shaky still because I'm getting very few calories and I can tell my labs are off but the pounds and inches are coming off and I'm recouperating well.

Is it just me or is everyone trippin'?

So my family is being a little strange. My surgery is 2 days away and no one has really said anything to me about whether I have everything I need or anything else. I had to ask if they wondered if I was nervous. I'm not but normally that would be a question that they'd ask me.
My husband doesn't really want me to do this. He's a nervous nelly when it comes to medical procedures in general so he says the thought of anything happening to me is more than he can handle... Cute but counter productive. If I don't lose this weight I'll have poor health and that wouldn't be any better.
They only thing my husband is really concerned about, besides my safety, is whether or not I'll still cook for the family... This is why you should pretend you can't cook so your man doesn't get hooked on the idea (LOL!)
He's a little skeptical about this whole process because a coach he's familiar with had RNY and didn't lose any weight and he doens't know if it's worth the risk. I think he's just too nervous to let on but my girls are supportive so I guess I'll have to roll with that.
Even my mother who is very supportive didn't say a word when I told her my surgery is @ 9:30.
Maybe it is me....
