Two months out

May 09, 2011

Today is 8 weeks for me since my surgery.  I'm down 60 lbs total. I need to do measurements and pictures and will do that soon.  I'm progressing with adding foods but somewhat have been limited in what I add.  I've been primarily eating some chicken, tuna,shrimp, eggs and cheese. Getting better most days with my fluid intake but still have not hit the 64 mark.  I think with the weather being as beautiful as it has been I'll increase naturally.

Lots of changes both physically and emotionally. Have had many conversations with my husband and have actually been spending some time together and we have decided to work on reconciling.  It was a very hard decision to make and I know there are no guarantees that he will come through but he is finally trying and putting in his best effort.  I have made it clear that I am on my own journey of healing and need to put myself first and that we need to take it slow but my emotions seem to get in the way so I am trying very hard to remind myself daily that I have to take it very slow and day by day.  My heart is swelling and I am very happy that we are trying to reconcile but my fears of the bumps in the road having a detrimental effect on my state of mind scare the heck out of me.  Some might say this is not all relevant to the weight loss but to me my frame of mind and how I deal with these new stressers both good and bad will definitely have an impact.  I am just praying for strength to keep grounded in my journey and that my husband and I find our way back to each other.
