I am now down 45 pounds !!!! I have went to two group support meetings
and everything is going great. I am still so glad that I had this surgery done. This week I will go join "inch by inch " excercise center. I also know that I am not getting enough protein.So that is something I really need to get going . Oh I bought my first pair of jeans with a zipper , how cool is that , my first pair in about 19 years. and size 14 is not so bad. Im not complaining.

Well my weight loss has slowed down but thats ok , I feel great. also I think somewhere along the the line I had miscalculated my weight loss, which again is ok because I am losing and feeling great !! It seems to be normal to me now to just eat so little whereas before may 1st , I would have laughed about eating so little.Tomorrow is marks birhtday I ordered his favorite cherry cheesecake but it is all sugar free , which we have had before and is very good. It is funny all the sugar free foods you can find that are so good !! I still have not , thank god, gotten sick, but I try to be very careful.I still find my self getting pretty tired out by 3-4;00 but oh well i guess that will pass in time. well untill next time,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Today I went to my 6 week check up , although A coulpe days early. DR. says Im doing great. I have officially lost 35 pounds :):) I am eating just about everything , well that Im allowed to have. It is so weird to eat such a little amount of food and get so full , but A nice feeling :) For Fathers Day We will go out to dinner with all my family , who I did not tell I had surgery, so it will be odd / nice to hear there comments, not that 35 pounds is so much , but it definetly shows. well until next time ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

JUNE 3RD,2008 1ST DAY BACK TO WORK on June 3, 2008 8:50 pm
Today was my first day back to work and it was great although tiring. Everyone noticed my weight loss and that was nice. Because it seems that since my weight loss is at a plateau I can not notice a difference. It was so nice to go into the breakroom at work and not even to be tempted to grab a cookie :) I have a great job and I love the people I work with.
