78 pounds and counting
Feb 06, 2011
I've lost a total of 78 pounds now. No longer burping acid, thank goodness. I do watch my carbs everyday. I would have to say my protein comes from food. I always choose protein first and base my meals around having protein first and sometimes just protein alone. I can eat almost everything so far. I do miss my bowl of pasta, but I have accepted that carbs are not good for me. What i do have instead of the pasta is just a meatballs and grated cheese locotelli romano cheese or parmesiana cheese. YUM.
I have noticed that the weight isn't flying off as fast as it did right after surgery, but that's ok. It's coming off, and I am so grateful for that. Thank you Dr. Gagner!
I do find that I have more energy now, I can get more things done in my day and no longer get winded as i did before the surgery. I have been walking,weather permitting, and also 30 minutes on my stationary bike 3 times a week. I may increase that soon.
Love the decision to have the surgery done. Summer is going to be fun. I will have to get new clothes though. Everything now is VERY big on me.
