First week complete...

Jun 23, 2009

So today makes a week since surgery and things are coming along. I'm looking forward to starting on full liquids today. When this journey began I was weighing 305 and gained another five during the waiting period. The day of my pre-op appt I weighed 310 that was June 1st. By the surgery date I weighed 298.7. Today I weigh 288.2. Giving me an approximate 22lb loss since June 1st, 12 pre-op, 10 post op. I can't imagine why I wouldn't lose because I havent had any food in a week and a half. I think the big test will come when I began to eat food. Well I plan to remain vigilant and go head on with this weigh like the Spartans against the Persians. I know that quite an analogy but that's how I feel like a really small strong force against a massive strong force(food and weight). I will be as King Leonidas was. And even more like David, I am walking straight up to my lions(food and weight) and they will become as kittens because I am a child of God and he has brought me a mighty long way and I know he will continue to carry me through this storm, I see the sunshine peaking through those storm clouds, and I am already rejoicing. I know there may be, forget that, will be some hard times ahead, but I got my armor on and I'm ready for the fight. Bring it On!!


disclaimer: Don't take this and hold my hard times against me...I promised to blog the good, the bad and the ugly.
