Week 15

Jun 21, 2011

I am so grateful for the opportunity my RNY has provided.  I feel better, I am told I look pretty good ( I can't always see the difference) but my clothes are definitely loose or no longer wearable.  I am now wearing a 14-16 bottoms and can wear most XL tops. I was previously a 20-22 bottom and wearing a 2X-3X top.  I have lost a cup size in my bra and my undies definitely need replacing very soon.

Here are some of the things I have learned so far. 

* Eating healthy is not as easy as it looks.  Meals need planning and Protein, Protein, Protein
* As my body is shrinking, my pants all got longer, lol.  I could not figure out why my pants all needed hemming.
* I have to keep vitamins in my desk, in my purse and in my house of I will forget to take them.
* The scale can be addictive, but once a week is enough for me right now
* Eating can sometimes be a chore. Don't kick yourself if you miss a meal, just do better with the next one.
* Attending Support groups really helps you stay focused, and lets you know you are not alone.
* My man is much more supportive than I gave him credit for. He is now my biggest champion!
* I have to make time for exercise not find time for exercise

Since I am still fairly new at this, I am sure I will learn more as I go.
