2 months post op
Sep 22, 2013
So I am a few days late in writing an update on my progress so far. I believe that my total on my 2 month was -42.6lbs and -28.25 inches. I have been feeling a little awkward in public lately..and well normally I am not the type to give a damn what others think of me..but that has been the exact opposite of what is happening lately. I am positive that it had something to do with even my sweat pants were falling off. This week I had to retire a bra as i was falling completely out of it..pretty much defeats the purpose of having it on right? I went down a full cup size and 2 inches off the band. Then this weekend I had to go to the mall with my daughter and ended up buying myself a few things..new jeans and a few tops..tops 3 sizes smaller and jeans 2 sizes. No wonder I felt awkward in public wearing stuff 3 sizes to big :)
14 days until myself and a few girls from WLS support group and my youngest sister ..and a few others run a 5 km for CIBC run for the cure. Since week 3 I have been hard at running every other day..and for the most part I have kept that up and also started going to aqua fit with my friend. I feel amazing and strong. It is very hard to imagine that ones body changes and adapts so quickly to the new life.
I do believe that I have found out that I am intolerant to wheat. I ate some bread for the first time last week and all of a sudden I was suffering from sinus troubles and obnoxious headaches (which i had chronic problems previous to surgery)..I wasn't sure If I was getting sick as I felt like crap in general. I stopped eating wheat again and magically my sinus issues and headaches have disappeared. Probably been allergic my whole life..sad i just figured that out now..but glad i made the connection.
Anyways loving my new life 72.4lbs to goal..onward and downward!
