Slow but steady!

Dec 29, 2009

It's almost the end of December.  I can't believe I'm coming up on my 2 month surgiversary in a few weeks!  So far I've lost 35 pounds.  It's slow but, steady.  I cannot complain.  I keep reminding myself where I'll be next November!  The holidays have been challenging.  I honestly already really got off track.  I discovered that I could taste sweet things and I did.  and not just once but, many times.  I thought I didn't dump till I tried brownies and I had the dump of all dumps!  It lasted several hours and I was in agony.  I'm now scared of sugar!  That's what I needed!!!  In the scheme of things I also wasn't getting in all my protein.  But, yesterday marked the day I got back on track.  No more forgetting vitamins or to track my protein.  I have struggled since the beginning with protein shakes but, that's the only way i'm going to get it all in.  SO, i have some unflavored unjury and i mixed it in a strawberry smoothie last night and it wasn't awful.  I can tolerate it.  I think the protein powder is a mental issue for me...I swear i can taste it!  But, if I can just start by getting one of these in a day and work up to 2 i think i'll be more on track.  Thank God for OH if it weren't for this site I'd be lost.  I check posts daily and search for my concerns.  It's like a bible for weightloss surgery.
