Twelve Week Post Op
Jun 24, 2009
I can't believe it's been 12 weeks already. Time flies when your having fun. As of my appointment with the dietician on June 12 I've lost 50% of my excess body weight since I first walked through thier doors last July. i find that amazing. Now for pounds......... 75 pounds since last July, 50 since surgery. Went from a size 26/28 to an 18! That is just amazing. I bought a whole new wardrobe for the summer and it's already getting too big. So I guess I get another new one for the fall. No crying this time when I get rid of the stuff that doesn't fit.

Nine Weeks
Jun 01, 2009
I have been so bad - not blogging. Things have been going really well. Yesterday was nine weeks post-op. I think I 've lost 40-42 pounds. I haven't been to the docotr's office since week three. My bathroom scale is not accurate but it is showing that I may have hit ONEderland. Yahoo!
The eating is going well most of the time. I can't understand why a food will sit well today then maybe not the next time. I couldn't eat dinner last night because my lunch got stuck. I also don't understand why it takes so long for my body to let me know it got stuck. I ate my lunch fairly early, about 11 am then started to feel 'sick' around 4 pm. I spent the evening bowing to the porcelaine god. Something to talk to the nutritionist about when I see her next week.
I'm starting to adjust to the new me. My confidence level is going up. As one of my co-workers put it - I've grown balls. I have actually started to stand up for myself and speak my mind like nobody's business. Never did that before. And the compliments! I do remind people that I did this for my health - the looking good is a side effect. But it is nice.
