Weight loss stalls are NOT fun!!!

Dec 26, 2008

Hey everyone!!!  I hope you guys had an awesome Christmas!  Mine was great as my fiance was home from Iraq for the first time in a couple of years...and will be home through New Years. 

Yesterday he and my son cooked a beef tenderloin on the grill...so I had a small piece of filet for my Christmas meal.  It was incredible!!!  Of course I was full after only a couple of bites...but it was so good!  I also found a sugar free apple pie and some no sugar added vanilla ice cream and had a tiny serving of that for dessert.  INCREDIBLE!!! 
My only complaint is that I'm not losing weight.  I've lost a total of 22 pounds...but it seems like I should be losing more considering the microscopic size meals I'm eating.  I'm trying hard to do everything right...protein first...water...we all know the drill.  But I have not lost a singe pound in like 3 weeks now.  So frustrating!    I know it will come off eventually...I'm just impatient. 

Other than that...no issues at all.  My pouch isn't a grouch...she seems to be able to tolerate almost anything.  I can eat beef, chicken, fish, shrimp...the only thing I've eaten so far that has not agreed with me is pork...I had a bite of a grilled pork chop and it gave me a stomach ache.  No foamies, vomiting, or otherwise...just a tummy ache. 

So I guess I should not complain.  So far I'm tolerating this procedure very well and feel great.  I'm already over my shortness of breath and feel more like my old self more every day. 

Anyway...hope you guys had an awesome Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!!
