6 weeks, 1 day!

Feb 08, 2011

yesterday was 6 weeks that have swoooshed by so very fast!  so much life has changed since.  i've had to re-learn how to swallow.  both drink (i used to guzzle water in big big gulps, not so much any more), and with food (small bites, chew, chew, chew, work up the bubble of air that is inevitable, walk if the discomfort won't go away, swallow one bite less than you want and wait to see if anything else might fit).

clothes are starting to really fit differently!  i've finally gone down a size in pants!  i lost a total of 10# before surgery and have lost 19# since surgery making a grand total of 29#!!  i'm a short woman so 29# is a significant loss.  feeling so much better physically AND mentally.  what a difference.

still batttling head hunger.  i'm not going to be one of the lucky ones that never gets hungry.  it's worse with stress, but always present. 

so happy with this decision and so very sad i didn't consider it sooner.
