Coming up on 4 weeks out and smooth sailing
I am coming up on four weeks out and things are going very well. My sutures have healed nicely and I don't have much pain. The spot on my lower left side is still a little tender down deep but it is much better. I have quite a bit more energy now then ever before and it is getting easier to make it through a day. I start back full time to work next week, I have been working part time and getting quite a bit behind. I am down 30lb sense surgery and over 60lb sense I started my 6 month monitored diet last fall. The wife and I bailed out my closet and took a pile of clothes to my Dad this afternoon...it was a little sad to see them go but exciting at the same time. We went to the store and bought two pair of jeans to get me through for a while. I am down from a 52" waist to a 44"!!! Crazy but cool. All in all things are doing good, I have my labs and one month check in this coming week and hopefully I get the free pass to hit the gym harder and get back to training BJJ. Food is getting easier and easier but I can't eat very much at a sitting...I am ok with that though. I do get the foamies from time to time with water, I need to have it cold or it doesn't sit well. Well, those are my ramblings for now, all in all I am doing very well and excited for what is to come in the next few months.
