25 Pounds gone!

Jan 22, 2009

  This is my first post-surgery blog.  I am 3 weeks and two days out from surgery (Dec. 30, 2008) and of this morning I am 25 pounds lighter!  My jeans are proof too.  I feel like I am wearing the botton half of a clown costume!  LOL  My jeans are loose in the waist and really baggy in the hips and thigh area.  They feel just plain stupid to wear!  My next smaller jeans will go on, botton and zip but were still snug in the waist a good week ago. I will have to give them another try and see how they are now.
  My actual surgery experience wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.  Pain was manageable at the hospital and minimal when I got home a couple days later.  Everyone at the hospital was nice and suprised at how well I could move around without their help. I returned to work after two weeks of being off.  It was getting boring at home too.
  I am tired of eating the same old foods right now, I can venture into trying other things besides cottage cheese, protein shakes, and scrambled eggs.  Making a batch of chili now and it smells good, yum!
