3 Month update

Apr 15, 2009

Well its been 3 mts and 3 days since I had my surgery and eveyday I'm glad that I had this done. As far as food goes I can eat most anything I make for the family, some days I'm just not that hungry and others I have a good apatite I'm trying to listen to my body and what it needs or what I think it needs. I have my shake first thing in the morning  so I know that I have gotten a good start,apx. 35 grms. of proten there. I love any type of meet on salad this is a staple and quick, I enjoy a wide variaty of fruit,cheeses,yougart and for now stay away from bread I have small amounts of wildrice mixed with plain and the odd time small amounts of pasta(whole wheat) with my spigetti sauce. I don't do sugar only splenda, I really don't want to find out if I'm a dumper or not ( or should I say I'm too scarred to find out). I don't miss anything except the ability to guzzle water when you have a great thirist ( I really miss that). The fact that I'm down 74lbs, walking 4.5 kl daily, started to train with small weights and feel FANTSTIC is a good enough reason for me to put up having to sip my water instead of guzzle. This month I have lost 16lbs and 19 inches for a grand total of 70and 1/4 inches overall. I also had a great wow moment this month and the editer of OH magazine has asked to use it in there wow moment section so I said OK of course!!!!! My weight on the 12th was 269lbs, today as I write this on the 15th it is 267 so lets hope I have another great month and more baggy clothes to give away!!!! This is such a personal and wonderful journey I can't wait to turn the next corrner and peek to see whats around it. As usual when I get new pict. I will post them ( not to swift with that).  Loving my WLS choice. JANN
