Three weeks post op

Nov 05, 2012

I think I am doing okay, weight is definitely coming off (boobs are really deflating! Me to Husband:  I think I need a new bra, Husband: just get a new pair of socks)  good thing I love him and this is how we get along ...... or else! lol 

I went to help a girlfriend move this weekend in Shoal Lake, she recently got rid of 200 lbs (her husband) and is feeling really good.  She dragged that dead weight around for 10 years too long, anyway, I digress.  I wanted to say that I had my first experiences with take out and I was disappointed in how badly I wanted some of that pizza.  I did (on the second night of them ordering chicken and pizza) have some of the topping of the pizza (mostly cheese and sauce) and it was good.  I also tried some chicken, skin off and shredded.  I was getting desparate for hot food as my friend didn't have a microwave or a working stove yet and one can only eat so much cottage cheese and greek yogurt.  I am liking the canned meats for lunches, they are easy and tasty (when mixed with mayo) All in all I lost 2 lbs on the weekend so I did okay.  I was very careful not to hurt myself lifting.

Anyway, that was boring.  I am taking advantage of this time off from work to reorganize my house.  I wanted the time off in case I had complications or was feeling crappy.  Luckily I  had neither so I have redone my guest room (painted ceiling and walls and wallpapered a feature wall - a beautiful demask)  LOVE IT!

I haven't gone back to the gym as I am treadmilling at home and the roads haven't been great, so why drive to town to walk when I can do it right here. 

I think I am down about 15 lbs since surgery, maybe more.  I am addicted to Myfitnesspal (which I didn't have on the weekend cuz she still didn't have internet hooked up - boooo)  and am really experimenting with food.  I hope I don't hit the dreaded 3 week stall. 

I have to say that I am kinda feeling like the bride when the wedding is over or the new mom after the baby comes - all the hoopla is over and the business of settling into real life is here..... and kinda boring.... haha. 

That's enough for now.
