Truckin Along...

May 23, 2011

So tomorrow is my 2 months Sleeve-aversary. I feel really good. I'm slowly and steadily losing and I'm good with that. My families still being a pain in the ass because I'm not losing "fast." lol. They say snarky comments pretty much every day without fail about what or how I'm eating. At first I was really sad about it and now... FUCK IT. I'm over it.

I made a sign that I put up in my room and it reads: "I WILL ONLY PLEASE MYSELF. SCREW EVERYONE ELSE... I'm GOOD!" Every morning I wake up and see my rinky dinky sign and smile. I've come so far. I'm consistant with my weightloss, I'm in control of eating, no eating disorder. I'm exercising again and feeling good about myself and No more knee pain. So I may not be losing a crazy amount of weight like my younger cousin did but I am getting my life back and soon I WILL be at goal, a healthier happier version of myself.

Really when it all comes down to it I need to just "please" myself. Make myself happy. I know I'm following plan and following my Dr's orders to a T so Screw everyone else. It will just make goal ever so sweeter.

I've notice that now its harder when it comes to food protien wise. Like some chicken goes down fine, others (usually the tougher kind) causes me some serious foamies. Like tonight, I ate terriyaki chiken and steamed veggies and the chiken was bar b qued and I probably at 2 oz and right after the foamies came. I mean the food itself was DELICIOUS it just didn't agree with my Sleeve. So now I really need to be careful with my Sleeve.

I feel like my Sleeve is bigger than others. I can easily eat 4oz of protien with veggies and feel fine but I don't want too. I measure out my protein into 2oz and then have maybe 3-4 bites of veggies and thats it. Since I'm not feeling any hunger this is easy to do. I have to remember my stomach was HUGE, which means my stomach was long and thats how I can eat more than most. Even though my surgeon measured my stomach to the bougie, it was still long.

Weight wise, I hit plateaus it seems twice a month but when they break the weight comes right off. Boys WARNING TMI!!!! I'm starting my "lady cycle" this week so I know the next couple of days the scale wont move but after, I'll drop 5-6 pounds so I'm excited. I told myself I'm not weighing myself till Fri-Sat. I may make my 2 month Vlog then too or have the guts and do it tomorrow.

But I am just HAPPY. Its really crazy how just 6 short months ago I decided on getting this surgery and how tomorrow I'll be 2 months out. I'm 260 and a size 20, 6 months ago I was 300 plus pounds and a size 26-28. I am happy. I am content and someone up there, whoever it is has blessed me. I really couldn't have gotten this surgery without one person... OBAMA. lol His healthcare reform bill made it so my moms insurance could cover me. So Thank You Obama. lol.

Everyone Take Care
