Almost...

Jan 04, 2011

Almost at 70 lb loss. The weight loss has slowed down which is normal and understandable at this point in this process.  Slow and steady she goes.  

I feel great although, I did eat some chicken last night  with some ricotta cheese and tomato sauce (1-1.5 oz at most) and had the nausea and vomiting gods come down on me again.  I guess this will be an ongoing issue.  Slow down and chew chew chew.

I want to have photos taken of me when I hit 138 lbs because that will be my 70 lb goal.  I'll post them once I reach this milestone.  My end goal is 120 lbs which is perfect for my height 5'2".

So, I haven't told many people about this surgery but obviously the weight loss is so obvious when you see me in photos or in person. Well yesterday one of my co-workers finally asked what I was doing.  Well, I don't think it's their business to know I had WLS, but I also don't want to lie to anyone.  So I told the truth, I said hard work.  This journey has been hard work with all the ups and downs, nausea and vomiting, trying to get the food and liquids in etc.  I told her I was on a calorie restriction diet plan (that's the truth), taking tons of vitamins and working out.

So I didn't lie, I just didn't give the full blown story.  Anyway, the person then started blabbing apparently to others in the dept.  about how I'm starving myself, and it's not healthy what I'm doing etc.  Sheesh!  Can't people just be happy for another?  Lesson learned
