Stall must be over...

Aug 08, 2010

Well, my first stall has come to an end. Thanks to all the seasoned posters who wrote about their stalls I didn't concern myself too much when my weight loss came to a screeching halt about a week-and-a-half post-op.

Tomorrow is my 3-week surgiversary (if there is such a thing) and the scale has gone down 4 pounds in the last two days. My total loss now, including the pre-op diet, is 27#. That is from my highest weight, which was about a month or so before surgery during my 'farewell tour' of all my favorite fooderies.

My highest weight was 223, pre-op was 218 (I think), today's weight 196. I am so grateful to be on a downward spiral that I know will continue and not reverse itself. In a few minutes, I am on my way to our church picnic, the second food frenzy of the weekend. Hopefully this one will go better than the one on Friday where I was overcome with aversion to the smell and sight of some of the foods. Everything today will be homemade, though, so that will probably make for a better experience than the grease-laden 'carny' foods on Friday.
