Learning curve...

Mar 29, 2011

Its been a wake up call these past couple of days postop with the whole "volume" apsect of my liquids. It takes me HOURS to get down a 16oz water bottle when before I could gulp one down in seconds. It BLOWS my mind.

My new tummy has been singing ALOT. I guess its getting used to its new size. I STILL havent weighed myself, I want to (believe me) lol. But I want the element of surprise when I see my surgeon on the 8th. Its all very exciting. I notice the weightloss in my back and shoulders. My back lovehandles have shrunk ALOT. My waist still feels bloated so I don't look at it much, just my incisions and make sure there healing well.

Been having hainously bad breath. I brush my teeth twice a day sometimes three times. I know its becuz my bodies in ketosis and thats a side effect of losing weight. YAY for stanky breath.

I haven't tried on any clothes (even though I'm VERY tempted to) I've been wearing three pairs of sweats interchanging them until the 8th. My younger cousin who was sleeved on the 17th of February lost 45 pounds her first month. I see that as ALOT. My families saying to themselves I'll lose more because I was bigger than her and so on. I personally don't think I can lose that much, that fast, so whatever I lose I lose.

I don't want any goals over my head, I just want to lose what I lose. And I'm not going to announce it to everyone either, thats my buisness. When I drop a size, of course I'll be vocal but as for my weight, its me alone.

So everyone take care
Thanx again for all the support... I'm doing it.
