3rd Month Weigh In
Feb 17, 2010
Hey Fam,I haven't been consistent with posting my blogs on time, so please forgive a sister. I'm workng and going to school fulltime and trying to pass this Accounting class that I'm so not feeling. Then to think that I have to take Principle of Finance next and I'm just not feeling the math right now. It's crazy when before I was loving working with numbers and now I want to throw the textbook to the bottom of the sea.
Now lets move on to happier times. Think happy thoughts, happy thoughts
so I'm now 3 months post my surgery and it has been difficult and I aint going to lie. I find that my pouch is picking up an appetite and I'm trying to control it, but it is so hard for me when it is that time of the month. I try and stay away from chocolate and carbs, but then it happens. I cave in and lose control. Now, although I can eat it, I do so in moderation and instead of eating the whole bar I'll have a bite or 2 and I'm good. Now I will eat only the 3 musketeers I know that don't make it any better, but I do. I'll eat only baked lays chips or Sun Chips the multi grain joints and they are the BOMB. It is so easy to get addicted and resort back to the old ways, so I'm going to have to put this under wraps.As far as medicines are concern, I've stop taking my meds for the ulcers as I wasn't having anymore issues with eating. If you don't remember I couldn't eat for quite sometime and now that I can I think I'm making up for lost times. I keep my vitamins at work and take the multi, and B12 in the morning, but I'm still working towards the Caltrate. I just hate the taste of the minerals in these darn pills. I was thinking about getting the One a Day chewables
, so if anyone used those, please let me know how it tastes. Moment we've been waiting for my stats. I went to my pcp yesterday and I'm weighing at 230lbs which is a lost of 9.5lbs since Jan. This means I've lost a total of 71lbs (16lbs before surgery and 55lbs post surgery)
. I'll post some pictures of me in which I really don't see the change, but others have said otherwise. I still see myself as the fat girl. I've gone to Dots to try and find some skirts and I'm now wearing a size 18 in bottoms and I'd purchased a size XL turtleneck. It's crazy because all of my clothes in the closet are too big on me, but I still wear as if there is no problem until my cleavage start to show. I have to roll up my pants and keep the pinned up and now I'm starting to sew up the sides. I think it is more inches I'm losing than pounds, but I'll take that as it is better than nothing. I can't wait to be wearing a size Large or Medium than I really know that I've arrived.I need to get back to my Jazzercise in which I have been slacking on. I'll start that back and purchase my Jillian Micheal workout videos as I heard she is the truth and you will see real results as if you were on the Biggest Loser campus. I need that motivation.
If you have any tips for a sister please let me know.
Peace
