Update--4 months post op
Nov 16, 2010
Well, I can't believe that it has been 4 months, I remember when I was during my 4th month nutritional visit, I thought that this time would never come. Highlights:
1. Finally in onderland 195lbs to 198lbs--total loss of 52lbs since surgery and 79lbs since beginning process in October 2009. Amazing I must say....
2. Fitting in size 14--regular clothes, XL tops and bra size unknown, need to get measured. Currently, I know all of my bras are too big because when I lean forward, sometimes my booby pops out lol...Too Much Information!
3. Increased energy level with my almost two year old son, I can play and run around with him for hours.
4. Food --still have no taste for food, I have to remember to eat to keep losing. I am doing great with my fluids, I prefer water over anything else, such a shocker. I do not follow any specific diet such as high protein, low carb...I just manage portions.
5. Foods that I have not tried yet..BREAD...I am so afraid. However I tolerate all meats well. I ate an quarter of a gala apple that decided that it was not going to go down, and that was without the skin. I am afraid to do that again.
6. Exercise, I continue to ride my bike three to four times a week, I completed a 240mile bike ride in Seattle Washington with my company--I completed 160miles of full ride. I am now registered for the MS150 Houston to Austin in April 2011, it is 150 mile bike ride over two days for multiple sclerosis.
7. Love Life....stagnant have not taken time to even be bothered with it, enjoying my quality time with my son, however I have noticed the men checking me out more...:))))))))
8. Since Surgery Statement....Well I am just letting my life evolve.
That's it for now, just taking time out to update. I am on this site usually every other day on my IPAD but you can only post comments on message board the blog post does not work due to the FLASH app. Talk to you all soon.
