What a difference a day makes!!!

Apr 17, 2011

Let's just say what a difference ten months makes. I am coming up on my 1 year anniversary of RNY and I feel great.  I am now in a loose size 14(used to wear size 20) I am almost positive that I can wear a 12, but I won't venture to it yet. My husband says, "Stop being so scared of yourself." You look hot!!
Me, look hot!! I am still trying to get used to those words from him.
My labs have been looking good. I have been prescribed  Vit D. I am also still on prenatal vitamins. 
It is just so incredible how different I feel since I have lost the weight.  I enjoy so many things.  I even enjoy doing the exercise because I don't feel like I am the center of attention. Where everyone wants to see how long the fat girl can last without sitting down.  Now, I can last just as long and even longer than some of my thinner associates.
It is an incredible journey.  Old habits want to creep in but  I have to stay focused.  I am beginning to realize that the surgery is not a cure all and that I will have to work at it consistently in order for it to be a success
My favorite meals consist of baked chicken without the skin, veggies and brown rice. I am beginning to substitute more vegetable proteins for the meats. Heard that it is much better for the colon!
Summer is fast approaching, but I am well on my way to being "ready". Look out swimsuit, here I come!!
