Six weeks post op

Jun 17, 2010

It's now been six weeks and two days after my surgery. I'm just under losing 35lbs and am 1 lb from being the smallest I've been in 17+ years which was the day after I gave birth to my youngest son!!!! Holy Moly!

It's still pretty surreal to me. I'm still in a size 18 pants, yet they look as my husband says "like a flying squirral" when I pull the sides. Some are actually falling off, but I'm still not quite at a size 16.

I'm able to eat almost anything within reason. Just small amounts. Today I had a sliver of pepperoni pizza and was able to handle that just fine. I'm eating mostly chicken, fat free cheese, shrimp, and other meats or seafood. I still haven't dumped, but have thrown up four times after eating too much or even the wrong food (chicken fingers). That was at lease two weeks, so it's not been bad lately.

I've also weend myself off one of my 2x day altace for my high blood pressure. I've had it check at the drug store and my doctor's a few times and it's still good. I've also gone from 3x  day Metaformin to 2x day.

2 weeks ago I was in a real downer, really depressed, with no purpose I felt. This week is much better, and I even went for a job interview today, which I'm pretty sure I've got. The money sucks but it's 2 blocks from where we live.
