6 MONTHS POST OP !!!!!
Dec 15, 2008
Today is my 6 month anniversary and I have lost 79.6# since walking in to the hospital.... I still can't believe it. I saw the dietician, Internal Med. Dr. and my wonderful surgeon, Dr. Krause today and they all said I am right where I should be.... I just need to up my exercise is the only thing I have been a little slacking at lately !!! I still have no hunger, still only able to eat a small amt at a time, but I rarely throw up anymore and I have found that the only time that happens is with beef and occasionally hamburger, other than that, no food issues !!! I actually bought a size 12 jeans today...... can't remember the last time that size fit !!! The weird thing is, is that I still find myself drawn to the "Womens" clothing section and everything is too big.... I should be overjoyed at that... it's just that for the past 10 years, that is where I have shopped and I need to reprogram myself that I don't have to do that anymore. Like I tell people when they ask..... this postop experience is all about dealing with the "mind" more than anything... and that's ok, its just that things happen so fast (as far as weight loss, new sizes... ) with this type of "diet"... it really takes time for your mind to catch up. Well, enough rambeling.... I still am soooooo happy I had this done, I feel terrific and never want to go back to where I was !!!! Until next time......
