3-28-19 First family celebration

Mar 28, 2019

So My brothers birthday is coming up but my family celebrated it last night. It's the first time I had to really deal with alot of delicious food being the center of attention for a family gathering..Delicious takeout from our favorite italian restaurant, a birthday cake from an italian bakery that I used to love Pre-Op..etc. Everyone ordered their favorite dish and it all smelled and looked just like I remembered it. I think I was a little annoyed at first because I was asked if I wanted anything. Even when my family knows I can't have anything. The annoyence was short lived though because I knew this day was coming and I was fine. I have actually been doing really good with my Post-op life. Yesterday was 6 weeks Post-op and I was down another 3lbs for the week. On average I have been losing about 3-4lbs a week Post-op. Even when the night before Weigh-in I am just sure I am going to have my first stall the next day because I just felt bloated and "fat" that day. I am pleasently surprised when I wake up and step on the scale to see I have Lost yet again. Also one thing that felt great was my brothers wife being really excited for me and all the progress I have made. She was asking questions galore..and could see that my clothes were getting baggy. I don't usually like to be the center of attention, but I must admit. It felt good. Next major holiday is Easter. Bring it on!
