from the monthly update thread....

Feb 04, 2009

I'm currently about 21 months out.  Yup, things change.  For the most part it's been pretty easy to maintain.  But I do notice that I must still watch what food choices I make.  Refined carbs cause me to gain quickly.  I notice that exercise helps this problem, but I don't do as much of that as I should.

Grazing became very easy recently, as well as eating a whole lot more than I could previously.  I noticed that cutting the caffeine, upping the water intake, and getting more sleep pretty much took care of the trouble there.  I also have to make sure to have plenty of healthy snacks on hand.

Otherwise LIFE IS GOOD!!!  It is so much easier to be active!  I do so much more with my kids and around the house (except for today-- I've caught a cold).  In general, I'm a LOT healthier now.  I take 2 multivit.s a day (Centrum Silver even though I'm only 41) and plenty of calcium (we are at increased risk after VSG!).  I also take a magnesium suppliment.
