10 Weeks have flown by
Jul 12, 2010
I can hardly believe that it has been 10 weeks since my surgery. I have lost 60 pounds so far. However, for the last 2-3 weeks, I am only losing about 1 pound a week. It is making me really nervous. I always lose it over the weekend. I am always worried that this is going to be the end of my weight loss. I would imagine that is pretty normal. I am still not able to eat very much. I am lucky if I am able to eat more than 1/4 cup of anything. Foe the first 2 months, I never got sick. But these last 2 weeks, I have thrown up several times. It seems like it usually happens when I eat too fast or if I am having converstaions when I am eating. I tend to swallow too much air and then everything gets stuck. IT TENDS TO BE REALLY FRUSTRATING!I am finally dropping sizes, so that is great. i am now wearing a 16 regular (not 16 womens). That was really exciting for me. I started this at a 20/22 with the stretch and a 3x-4x shirt, I am wearing a 1x shirt and could probably go down another size.
I am trying to get used to this new body. I am having some self esteem issues that I am trying to work through, but I will do it. I am so grateful that I was able to have this surgery. I do not have the words to express that joy that comes to me when I see myself becoming who I always was without being fat.
