The long wait...
May 16, 2011
Is it May 16th already? Where did the time go?? I apologize that I haven't kept up with my blog lately but I didn't really feel like posting. The reason is that my weight loss for the past 3-4 months has slowed to a crawl, or even to a complete stop. I am 16 months post-op now and just can't seem to break the stall. For those reading my blogs for the first time, let me update you a sec. Surgery weight: 130kg. Present weight: 87.3 Goal weight: 70 (per my doc). VSG surgery performed 26 Jan. 2010. Age: 55, other problems: disabled by MS.What is responsible for my stall and more importantly... am I in danger of gaining again? These are questions that keep buzzying around in my head constantly and they are driving me nuts. While it's true that towards the end of the 1st surgery year I had grown a bit lax in my eating regimen, it's also true that for the past couple of months I have tried to clamp down on myself again. On the other hand, MS has raised its ugly head again and I'm back on all the meds I was taking pre-op.... the ones that had contributed to my obesity in the first place. So I've been seesawing up and down a couple of kilos for months now *sigh
Unfortunately, summer is coming - the season we live for here, in Greece. I so wanted to be down to my goal weight this year so I could enjoy the beach for a change instead of hiding. Right now, it doesn't look like my wish will come true. Sure, I'm waaaay better than I was last year, but still no cigar. It's frustrating.
