It's been awhile...Current Weight 231!

Mar 24, 2011

So again, I am in love with my sleeve!  It has been awhile since I have last posted, but I have been working hard at work, and working hard at maintaining this new tool!  I have been going to Bally's three to four days a week and am loving the new energy!

I have lost a total of 40 pounds since surgery on January 27th, and I feel great.  Sometimes I have to double take in the mirror to believe that it is me standing there.  Although I have a ways to go , I can see so much change.  It first started with my face.  Then my neck, I now have collar bones :)  My stomach is going to be a hard task, and gets a little discouraging at time when I look at it, but it is shrinking so I have a little hope. 

My husband has been a great help, and I appreciate him so much.  It is incredible how much my life has changed since being sleeved.  before surgery I was wearing a 20/22.  I am now wearing loose 18.  I am tempted to try on a 16 but I want to give it a couple more pounds beofre I do so.

I can eat a little more than I did when i first cam home from the hospital.  I am at a bout a 1/2 cup to a cup of food.  For example for breakfast I can eat to hard boiled egg whites and 2oz of dannon light and fit yogurt and I am stuffed.  I get hungry around lunch time(12 ish)  and I can eat a half of a boneless skinless breast with a couple bites of a vegetable.  And then I am content until around dinner time like 5pm.  I have noticed I am losing about a pound a day.  The weightloss has slowed down since being on a regular diet, but it is definately falling off.  People are noticing!


Anyways, until next time :)
