4 Weeks Out Today

Mar 16, 2009

Well 4 weeks ago I was getting prepped for surgery. I am down 29# and according to my husband's measurements I am down 8" from my body. I somehow thought I had lost more inches than that, but I'll take what I can get. I'm still having a hard time with the whole eating thing. I know I'm only getting about half of the carbs that my surgeon recomends and I'm not eating anything with fiber in. Trust me, I have suffered because of that lol. It's so hard to eat. Of course I am eating my protein first and when it's time for fruits or veggies I just can't do it. I'm stuffed. In less than two weeks my surgeon wants me at 800-1000 cal. I've worked myself up to maybe 650-700. To do that I feel like I'm constantly eating all day long. I want to be able to start exercising more, but I know I'm not getting enough fats or carbs in to give me the energy I need to allow me to workout longer. I need to find a nutritionist ASAP!  Enough rambling though. I feel good, my husband says I look good, although I see no difference at all. Also, I am so lucky that I have not dumped yet! Thank god!
