6 Months out

Aug 06, 2011

So I saw my surgeon the other day for my 6 month post op check. He's happy with all the weight I've lost and he wants me to get more exercise with weights. He doesn't know that I have been doing this all along. I'm officially out of the "obsese" category now. I can now add red meat, bread, rice and pasta to my diet. That freaked me out. I'm afraid to eat bread, rice or pasta. That's always been a problem, especially bread. Homemade bread and butter. Not good. I'm not too worried about the rice or pasta. Bread scares me.

I'll figure it out. I may just keep bread off my menu for a full year or even forever. It hasn't been a problem up to now, so maybe I'm over it. I'll tread lightly.

I've lost 80lbs from my highest weight of 259 and 65lbs since surgery. My surgeon wants me to lose another 30-40lbs. We'll see what happens. The body will do what it's going to as long as I follow the rules.
