Made it to the 50 lbs mark this week!
Mar 05, 2011
I made it to the 50 lbs mark this week. I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be. I guess the honey moon stage is over! I have been having so much nausea that I am constantly on guard and not wanting to eat. I know that I have to eat, but it is an issue. I have lost a little hair and don't want to loose any more, so I need to get my protein in. I have been working on the liquids thing, and think I am doing better.I continue having right hip pain. I thought that loosing 50 lbs would help it, but not so far. I have tried to walk some, but the pain is so bad that I thought I was going to have to call my husband to pick me up. I made it, but it was such a let down. I have lots of energy, so I do things around the house and for the family, but very little exercise.
I saw the doctor on Thursday. We talked about he nausea and the hip pain. I told him I had gone to a chiropractor to get help with my hip. He flipped out. "They can't do anything for your hip pain! I'll give you something for it!" I forgot MD's and chiropractors were mortal enemies! I had to laugh at him a little. But he did give me some Zofran and Ultram. I'm not really into taking pain meds, but I will use the Zofran until this stage of recovery is over. It can't come soon enough.
On a happier note, I got in a size 18 this week. I was so excited. My husband looked at my behind and told me that was the "but I fell in love with!" I weigh about what I weighed when we got married. So from here on down is going to be new ground for him. I am enjoying all the compliments from my co-workes. Nothing but good stuff. They seem to wait for me to get there to see how much I have changed since they saw me last. Kind of funny. I feel good about the transformation.
My goals for the week are: 1.Take the Ultram so I can get some walking in at least three times this week. 2. DRINK MORE WATER!!!! 3. EAT!!!
