6 weeks tomorrow

Jan 11, 2011

Tomorrow marks 6 weeks since surgery. I am down 26.1 pounds so far and I feel like I have lots more inches. I seem to be going a little slow this week in weight loss but it is about that time of month plus this is a weight I have spent a good deal of time at in the past so my body is comfortable here. I will be kicking up the walking to every day now no matter what time I need to go out in the cold to do it. I am hoping at my appt on Friday with the surgeon that I will be released to be able to work out with weights again at the gym. Tomorrow also is the first day I am on regular foods. Not sure yet what I will try first. .....
I have been out to eat with family and friends a few times in the past 6 weeks and it has not been too bad. I look for soup, fish, shrimp, or beans on the menu. I am really enjoying light white fish and shrimp lately. I also went to the market and picked up 2 crab legs last week and that was dinner for 2 plus nights. I went out shopping with a friend on Sat and although I did not find much at all I did purchase a pair of pants in the next size down for $3 at Old Navy! I figure even if i skip past that size $3 is not too much money to waste. I will try once a week to get them on and see how it goes. I have also gone through my closet in the past 2 weeks and I filled 3.5 kitchen trash bags with clothes that I will never wear again. All sizes and all seasons but some had been in my closet so long that no matter what I would not want to wear them. Also a great deal of them is just plain t-shirts that i can do with out.
