i will be 3 wks out this coming wednesday! the horrible pain i got when sitting up straight in a regular chair or seat in a car is gone, as far as i can tell :)i'm so happy about that, because it got to the point where it was excruciating.
as far as the scale. i'm actually still 242. the scale stalled on me. i do have trouble getting my protein in, because im so "un-hungry" - but i do manage to get some in. my bud (Lyndsey / LyndseyLouWho) said she's seen that a lot of people go through a stall somewhere around weeks 2-4. i'm ok with it, though, because i know the scale WILL move. the only thing i have a problem with is non-ops who ask me how much i've lost. last week, i said 242. this week, i'm saying 242. and bless their little uneducated hearts, you know good & well they're thinking "look, that girl went through all that mess - the surgery, the pain - and it doesn't even work!" misguided souls lol.
i am going through a bit of a depressed moment, though. it doesn't have to do with the surgery - it has to do with going back to work. shortly before i left work for the surgery, we had a shift bid. i happened to be a super unlucky girl :( ... my schedule went from a lovely Tuesday thru Saturday, 8a-4:30p (30 min lunch) to a wretched 5:15PM-2A (45 min lunch) [same days].
i've been trying to find something positive to look at regarding this schedule, but i'm sure you understand that it's close to freaking impossible.
for the past week or so, i have changed my sleeping schedule in order to get ready for my new schedule after work starts up again. right. um. I HATE IT. i have worked horrible schedules in the past (nothing as extreme as this, though), and i can tell you that - it may look like a "normal" 8 hours, but honey ... 8 hours is not a normal 8 hours when it's from the early EVENING til the wee hours of the morning. tired (check), moody (check), saddish (check). and to think, i work in technical support (getting cussed out by angry people who don't know how to turn their phone on.
i know i seem really negative - and i hate to bring anyone else's mood down ... but really. this is THE most horrible schedule i've had. EVER.
anyway ... 9 days until i go back to work. what would make me happy? breaking the stall and being down another 8 to 10 lbs by then.
PRAY for me. peace dearies :)
