This past week I was 8 weeks post-op - 206.  Can you say stall!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have not lost anything in 2 weeks!
I think it i fine because I lost 47 pounds in 2 months!  I am just frustrated because I want to be under 200!
I am still not able to eat a large vareity of things.  It seems like one day I can eat something and the next  day I can't!  Nothing really sounds good to me!  I guess this is a good thing!

Why does it seem like I am eating NOTHING and still loosing so slow!!!  I am feeling great just not able to keep much down.  I think I finally figured out that I am drinking too close to eating.  Today I will really be aware of when I drink and eat!  I hope it helps!

 I can't believe I got on the scale this morning and I lost another 2 pounds.  I guess I keep thinking it's too good to be true!!!!!  I am feeling amazing.  I started puree yesterday and did great!  I could not believe how full I was on such a small amount!   I am sooo happy!! I tried on a few things in my closet and although they are not falling off me, they are bigger and I can tell the difference.

It has almost been 2 weeks and I am down 20 pounds (8 pre-surgery).  I had an awful stall this week and got very frustrated!  I even showed a gain for a few days!  I seem to be back on the loosing track!  I am having a difficult time getting all of the protein in.  I am so over the shakes!  I had some delicious tomato soup the other day and it seemed to do well.   On Monday I can start puree....I never thought I would look so forward to eating mush!!!!

 I am home!! I had surgery on Monday and was able to come home today.  Because I was a revision, I had to stay an extra day.  The hospital stay was fine...the nurses were all great! I had some pain the first few days but then it seemed better.  I do no do well with pain meds so I have not been taking any.  I am not hungry at all and I am not getting much in.  I know this is NOT good and I am trying to get liquids down.  I am so happy that everything went well and I am on my way to healthier me!

I am getting so ready for my surgery!  I have been walking every day and really watching what I am eating.  I am sticking to 3 low calorie meals a day with no snacking between.  Also, I am really watching the carbs as well!
The walking is getting better and better and I actually look forward to it!  I am walking between 3.5 and 5 miles a day.  I am at a 14.5  minute pace but I am determined to be under 14 minutes before my surgery!  I can't help but think that the better shape I am in before my surgery, the better the recovery will be.
