    Wednesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

Update

Well yesterday was 10 weeks post op and I am down 57.4 pounds.  I am very happy with that.  I have only lost 1 pound over the last 11 days.  I guess I am in a mini stall.  That is ok too.....I have learned from  all the posters here at OH that this is quite normal and it is just my body adjusting.  Now 6 weeks ago when I had a bit of a stall, I was freaking out....I just knew that I had lost all I was going to lose.  So with this stall, I am keeping it calm.

I feel good with the exception of a stomach bug that my kids and I had for a couple of days this week.  I certainly have more energy....I find myself going to bed later and waking the same time as usual but I certainly feel rested.

My back pain has pretty much stopped, and I don't know if it is coincidence or if the weight loss has helped, but my headaches are far and few between and not as severe when I do have them.

I find myself moody from time to time, I guess that is the hormonal changes that are occurring in my body.

My head hunger is lurking about less and less, or I am able to get myself through an episode relatively easy by distraction.

I think I am wearing out my treadmill....it is over 10 years old....maybe Santa will bring me a new one for Christmas!!  LoL

Overall, life is good and I can't complain.  I am thankful everyday that I had the surgery and have zero regrets.

Missy
