Five months and going strong
Mar 29, 2016
Its been a very exciting adventure. I'm five months post op and enjoying ever second of it.
Some weeks I find myself misbehaving and eating things I shouldn't eat. I don't pig out or anything, but I find myself craving things. Mainly when I am at work.. I always want snacks at work. I need to be stronger. I didn't have surgery for no reason and I certainly didn't have this surgery to fail.
I know what I must do and as of Monday 3/28/2016.. I have sat myself down and told myself what I was doing wrong and what I needed to do to get back on track. Yes yes .. I did talk to myself.. Lol..
I reevaluated my calories and cut out those extra carbs I allowed to creep back in. I have always measured my food and I never got off track with that.. My problem was.. I was eating too many calories and my fat content was too high. I'm back down to 600-800 calories. I haven't gained any weight but it surely slowed down. I went from 2-4 lbs a week to 1 lb a week for the past 3 weeks. I feel that I am still too early out to slow down to very little weight loss.. So stepping back and reevaluating my food intake was the best thing to do.
Heres to a more successful week and months ahead!
