Spring 2010!
May 17, 2010
Hey Everyone! Thought I'd check in since I'm so bad at updating everyone. Things are going really well with my sleeve. So thankful for that surgery I can not even tell you. Everyday someone comes up to me and says something about the weight loss. I've even had a few people suggest that I not lose anymore... (whatever) I've lost about 70 lbs. now! woohoo!!! I'm into a size 12 in most things. I went to get a few things tonight and everything was a 12!!! My food intake has been a little better lately. I usually have 2 protein shakes a day, a few almonds, a little cheese, and for dinner maybe some stir-fry with either chicken, fish, or shrimp. mmmm. SOOO good! That's pretty much it. I still have to learn how to eat when we're out to dinner though.. The other day we went to Applebees and everyone at the table ordered salads, which was great. I ordered a 1/2 of a salad. It was still way too much, though. I kept trying to eat it, and then bam! Hit the wall. So I excused myself, went to the bathroom (didn't get sick though thank goodness) and tried to walk around a bit. It took a while, but I finally felt better. Social eating seems to be my biggest challenge I think. I have to have a little talk with myself when I'm about to go to a restaurant or to dinner at someone's house. It's so completely different than pre-surgery. But it's a good thing!! Just something I need to adjust still.I'm sad to say that I havent' signed up for a 5K yet. I really want to, but haven't been training like I should. I have gone on bike rides with my husband, and made it the whole way which is HUGE for me! I'll try and post some updated pics, too. Well everyone, I've got to get to bed. 5:00 am comes too quickly!!!
