Okay, so it's been 6 months, I've lost 98lbs or so and wearing a size 14. I'm feeling a lot better concerning my depression I went thru, nothing alittle lexapro and thyroxin couldn't fix. Today was a beautiful day outside, the temp was warm and not windy. We rode about 5 - 6 miles on our bicycles and walked one, my husband and I could have gone more but our 12 y/o daughter wanted to stop. My weightloss has really slowed down, I have remained the same for about 6 weeks. I've started journaling to keep track of why this is, the conclusion is I'm giving into carbs. Went out and filled the fridge and fruit bowl with fruit, out with the chips and ice-cream and kettle pop-corn. I'm able to eat just about anything I want, small portions, although I feel I could eat more I stick to half servings (usually). My hair has really gotten thin, I see some coming back in, thank goodness I was really getting worried. I find myself in the clothing stores a lot more then before, I want I want I want, the cool thing about it is my clothes don't cost as much. I went to wal-mart for some grub, and came home with 2 outfits as well. My husband can't keep his hands off of me, I mean he was that way before the surgery as well, but more so now. I mean constantly, sometimes I think it's funny and sometimes he's just in my space breathing my air...j/k.! I love him, and he's been there for me thru the thick and thin. We have both been noticing his weight gain since my surgery, I think it's cause he eats my leftovers. We both will be home with our daughter during spring break, really looking forward to getting out and doing things. A mini wow moment for me is we can leave our house about noon and not even consider turning the porch light on, and finally return after dark. This is not a norm for us, we would leave and be right back. My energy level is crazy, my house is spotless which is driving my husband a little nuts... I have 27 lbs to reach goal weight of 140, I'm feeling AWESOME, energy level is AWESOME, the world is more beautiful and my cup is definetely half FULL!!!
