8 weeks out...52lbs down!!

Jun 11, 2010

Hey friends,

Just thought that I would stop in and give you all an update. Its been about 6 weeks since I have been on.
So I'm at the end of week 8 and I have lost 52lbs so far....Yay me !!!!  I am all healed and feeling great. I have a ton of energy and my back doesn't hurt when I stand or walk anymore !!! And I'm hoping with time my knee wont hurt going up & down stairs...I think that all in all it has been a good recovery. I'm so happy I did this. There really isn't anything that I cant eat. But I do stick to the rules most of the time...There are foods that I am sick of, like pudding, but other than that I can eat whatever I want, just very small portions, of course. I have only vomited a couple times because I ate too much, too fast. And I know this next thing is gross but I'm sure I'm not the 1st or the last to share something like this...I was in the restroom, doing my business everything was normal and then I had an episode of "dumping" and Oh My Goodness!!! I thought I was gonna die!!! I got a terrible pain in my lower stomach, then I broke into a sweat, I was very weak, and my ears blocked. It was awful. This lasted at least 15 mins...I'm not sure what triggered it but I hope it doesn't happen again!!!!!  Also I have broken out with acne...I am using a regular acne wash and it seems to be working. Other than that I'm back to work and pretty much back to normal. I have been walking at work with some friends so that is good, but I still haven't gotten to the full 2 miles. I can do it I just don't...I walk about a mile at work...Well that's gonna be it for now...I hope everyone is doing well and I will see u all soon !!! xoxoxox Ran~
