So I think I started losing agian! Today and yesterday 4 pounds total....Maybe I can reach my goal afterall!

so Wednesday will make it 6 weeks, Im not losing like I feel i should be. I still feel like a cow at times. Sometimes I want to carry a sign that says I had gastric bypass I wont be fat for very much longer! I honestly dont know if I am in the normal range for weight loss or not. I go back to the Doc on August 12 which is my B-day. I have a goal to lose 40 pounds by then But I dont see that happening maybe if I go back to liquids I could. I have been doing everything right the only thing maybe that I do that others might not is I have about 4 or 5 baked wheat crackers everynow and again to settle my stomach. I do notice that I can eat more then I think I should be able to. I mean I still eat less then my daughter who eats like a bird! I dont know maybe today is just a crumby day. Not to mention I got kicked out of the community pool today because I had on a tank top and shorts, I dont have a bathing suit that fits and Im not going to go to the closest store thats 40 miles away just to go buy one! To me not wearing proper attire is wearing a thong or something!.   SO cross that off of the short list of things to do here at lovely Fort Irwin! UUGGGG!!!!!!!! I cant wait to leave this shitty place!

So I am 4 weeks out, down 24 pounds, I am 186.4, A little slower then I wanted but Hey, Im 24 pounds lighter then I was a month ago! Still working on my goal for 40 pounds gone by August 12th. My B-Day!

So yesterday I had to go to an FRG meeting and I had some size 18 capris stashed away in the closet that I havent worn in 2 years, and I thought Hmmm maybe I could fit into those. Sure enough my favorite pair of jean capris fit! I went from a  size 22-24 to an 18! I cant believe it just when I was getting down because I havent lost anymore weight for the past week!

So here I am two weeks out no pain nothing, I feel like I did before I went in just 20 pounds lighter! Thats right 20 pounds!   I've started eating mushy food already, I started that on Saturday, a littler earlier then I was supposed to ( I was supposed to start today) but I was hungry and I tested a little bit first didnt get sick so I have been eating. My thing right now is omletts I hate eggs but after not eating for 2 weeks they sure do taste good! I cant handle anything diet it makes me gag. Luckly I havent had any nausea or anything. Maybe a little more run down at the end of the day, but hey after the surgery, taking care of myself and a two year old I would say thats normal! My hubby didnt get hardly anytime off so I think for doing it by myself I am doing pretty good. I went to the store today and got lots of yogurt and fruits and veggies for me. Thank god my daughter is good in the store it took me forever having to read all the labels for carbs! My next Doc visit is July 15th.
