5 months and 3 weeks post op
May 10, 2010
Next Monday I will be 6 months post op. I decided I wanted to weigh because I have not weighed in 3 weeks. I was a little apprehensive because my husband's schedule has not allowed us to get to the gym or exercise like I know I should. Even though the exercise was scant, I still remained committed to my plan. So we stopped by the Y today just long enough for me to weigh, and to my amazement, I have lost 7 pounds in the last 3 weeks...all while not exercising nearly as much as usual.This journey is amazing. Just when I think I have it figured out...no way. I am thrilled. I am now 28 pounds away from my surgeon's goal. My personal goal is 12 pounds beyond that. Deciding not to weigh or buy a scale until I am at maintenance has truly been my peacemaker. I just never really stress over the numbers. It just goes to show our bodies will lose weight in their own way in their own time.
