1 Week Update

Feb 24, 2011

Hey all,
Melissa here!!  I'm feeling pretty good today.  I've always been a quick recoverer (is that a word?...lol)  I have been up bouncing around for the last day or two. 

I bounced a little too much yesterday.  I went to the grocery store with my mom and by the time we were finished I was hurting!!  Aching all over and feeling like I was going to pass out...too much too soon! It didn't help that I hadn't taken my Tylenol that day either.

Still have minor pain on my lower right stomach but otherwise the pain is in my shoulders and back.  I can control it with the tylenol.

I weighed myself today.  Thursday will be my weigh in day.  I started this journey at 311.  I was 304 at the beginning of my no-carb diet 2 weeks before surgery.  I was 296.4 the day of surgery.  According to my scale, I am (drum roll please)........................287.  That is almost a 9 pound loss from last week.   Crazy!!!  I should also mention that my "aunt flow" showed up 2 days after surgery...that wasn't fun so she may have messed up the numbers somewhere. 

Anyway...I'm excited although I don't feel like I earned the weight loss yet but I guess there isn't really much that can stop it.
