37 Weeks Post Op RNY

Oct 19, 2017

I dropped out of the CAMAW challenge, lol.  I had to; I forgot I was on it on day one and ate some carbs, and felt super anxious because it triggered my pre-op diet mentality.  

I weighed 185 last week, and this week am 183.8, for a loss of 1.2 Lbs, which is great as it's shark week and I'm super bloated.  So that makes my total loss of 120.2 Lbs.  Wow, that is hard to believe.  Last year at this time, I would NEVER have believed I could lose 120 Lbs.  I wanted to but didn't really believe it was possible. I was so worried that I'd be trapped in my big body forever.

This week I went on some nature hikes and had a wonderful time.  It's beautiful out, cool and sunny, and the leaves are gorgeous, the fall colours are brilliant this year. 

Today I have only been drinking water because I had to fast for blood work.  I dread getting blood drawn, and this is going to be a doozy; they need to take 15 vials.  I just need to finish my bottle of water and then drive over. If I'm not totally dizzy and light headed after, I'm going to go for a hike.  I'm bringing a pepperette and cheese string with me so I can get some food in my tummy.  I think I'll bring a bottle of G2 gatorade as well, to get my electrolytes up after having all of that blood drawn.  So not looking forward to it.

Well, I'd better get going. The sooner I get it over with, the sooner I can stop worrying, lol.
