6 Weeks Post Op

Mar 29, 2011

Well today was officially 6 weeks for me. Unfortunately when I weighed in this morning there was no movement on the scale since last week. The scale didn't move up though and after reading so many comments about the notorious 6 week stall, I was expecting that this would happen to me too. So I was mentally prepared for this to happen. As long the scale didn't move in the wrong direction, I can handle a week or 2 with no movement down. I do know that the inches are coming off though. I found a pants suit about 2 weeks ago that was snug, so I figured by the time I started back to work today, it should fit comfortably. Well, the pants were falling down to my hips today at work, so guess I will be giving up that pants suit very soon. MY size 14 jeans are fitting comfortable too, some are even a little too loose. So I know that I am at least losing inches. I think I have been very successful since surgery. I was wearing a size 18 and it was getting snug and I am already down to a size 14. Don't think that is too bad.
I also started back to work today. I guess the first day back went as well as could be expected after being off for 6 weeks. I did get all my protein in for the day already. Now I am just trying to get my fluids in. It was hard trying to fit it all in and still get my work accomplished. But I know it will get a little easier each day and I am lucky to have some really awesome co workers for support that have also had this surgery. Hopefully the scale will move a little next week. I would love to hit my goal weight by the time my mom gets married, so I have 4 more months to go. Not sure if that goal is reasonable or not, we will have to wait and see.
