100 day post op visit

Jul 29, 2014

Today was my 100 days post-op visit. Feeling good! I continue my weight loss at a very consistent rate. The first month 18+ lbs second and 3rd month both 9+ lbs. Over all I am down 45.5 lbs. (40.5 since surgery) . So far it has not been particularly difficult, ( the 1st 3 weeks of protein shakes a evil but distant memory! ) mostly because I don't have very much hunger and I am quickly full on small amounts. I know I am not meeting my protein goals and I just cannot make myself take any sort of chewable vitamin. I sometimes make some poor food choices...but because I am not able to eat very much do to the size of my stomach, I continue to lose weight. I know I will not continue my weight loss eventually unless I work on some these areas. I also have not done a consistent exercise program...but I have been very active. I have been telling myself I will begin running again when I am under 200 lbs...and that is now just 3.5 lbs away. I can't remember the last time I weighed under 200 lbs, but I believe it was 1999. Good things: carbonation does not cause much of a problem unless I drink it too fast....so I can enjoy my addiction to diet Pepsi. And for some reason... I'm not liking the taste of wine... Which really is a good thing since it is empty calories! I have been loving fitting back into a closet full of smaller clothes that I had out grown. This was the best decision. I am so glad I had my VSG !
