2-18-10 One Month Post-OP
Feb 17, 2010
I am exactly 1 month post-op today. I have lost a total of 33 pounds in one month. That is wonderful, but why don't I feel wonderful? I feel frustrated and impatient and I'm not even an impatient person. I stepped on the scale this morning and actually gained a pound since the last week. GAINED!!! I was expecting to see a 3-4 pound weight loss like I have every week since surgery. I don't know why but its put me in this "did the surgery really work for me?" kinda mood. I know if I would have lost 33 pounds ANY other way in a month, I'd just be jumping for joy and I am proud that I have lost that much but for some reason I just am in this slump. It might have something to do with me being on my period right now and my emotions are all out of wack anyhow.I have ventured out and tried a few new foods since my last post.
Some of the things I've had have been:
Grilled Chicken Snack Wrap from McDonald's
Half a bagel with fat free cream cheese
Deviled Eggs
Spaghetti
Tuna Salad on Crackers
Soft taco from Taco Bell
Easy Mac Mac N Cheese
Everything has been sitting really well with me and I look forward to this summer so I can get out and walk and run around after my daughter to up my exercise. Right now, I don't do any exercise since we have been snowed in so I am really hopin that this summer, I really burn off those calories!
Anyone have a treadmill or elliptical they need to get rid of? lol I'll take it off your hands!!!
