First Blog Post
Jun 21, 2012
As my ever so clever title states this is my first post. I have been tooling around on this site for a few days now and have decided to officially sign up. I was at first too shy to put all my numbers out on the internet for everyone to see, but people seem pretty supportive and that's what I want from this site..a place of non judgement and acceptance. So I stepped on the scales today and they said 275. I am down 36lbs from my start weight of 311 and I guess that's good. I will be 2 months post op 6/28/12 and I have mixed feelings. I wonder if I'm losing the weight at a good pace, or if I should weigh less at this time. I'm scared that I'm still eating too much, or when I feel the full sensation that I'm stretching out my pouch. I seem to get dull hunger pangs, not like I would when I was pre-op, but that worries me because I thought you were supposed to go almost a year with no hunger. I don't know, I just worry about my weight now more than I think I did before. Everything I put into my mouth makes me worry. I thought I would be so ecstatic having done this but the reality is I'm not ecstatic. I feel happy that I am losing the weight and getting active and healthy, but it feels so differently than I had expected.
