Today I'm 3week 2day post-op. I'm feeling Blah today. I went to my 2 week check up this past Friday. Actually it was 2 weeks 4days post-op when I went. I was 18 days out and found out I went from 234lbs day of surgery to 18 days later 216lbs, which was -18lbs since surgery. Not too shabby. Till that appt I had no clue how much I had actually lost. I didn't own a scale at the time, but after the appt. straight to Bed, Bath & Beyond I went. Worst decision I've made so far. I can't keep off the darn scale and it drives me crazy.
Later that day I went from 216 to 214, Sat. morn I was 211 and I've been that since.
So I've hit my first stall and you've heard many times over, IT SUCKS! What sucks is not knowing when you'll break the stall. So long as I don't gain, fine. And I know it's normal after reading posts on OH for months, but it still sucks! You feel like your doing so well. I walk a mile a day and don't eat much. I try to get all my protein in and I drink lots of liquids, but oh well. I just hope it doesn't last too long.
Anyhoo, I was hoping to lose 7 lbs in these next 7 days. I was hoping for 30lbs in April, my first month. BUT I can't complain, I don't know many people who lose 23lbs in a month. It took my sister in law 10months to lose 30lbs on her own. So hey, I have no room to complain. Maybe I have greedy gopher guts!
I will take pics at the end of the month to see and show you all my progress.
Till next time!
