i've done it i'm down 100 pounds... i don't know it all seemed kinda anti- climatic..i know all you starting this journey don't wanna hear that but i guess as always i kinda expected too much.. i wanted applause and confetti and everyone cheering but that did'nt happen just me saying yay! I feel good and thats the best part of this.. i went into by back doc and he asked me in the last month what has your back pain stopped you from doing and for once i did'nt have a answer.. that was amazing..so there is a very good side to this alot of them actually.. guess i have to just keep reminding myself of it

It's been awhile

and i've been loosing track to be honest this has not been a good month. I've really not lost any significant weight and i find myself slipping easily back into over eating habits. I still can not seem to get a meal in and when i do i end up throwing it up so i've been grazing like a cow all day . ok so i know what i am doing.. eating too often
i know why..because it is easy and comfortable
i know i am not keeping a food journal and i know why becausei don't wanna really see it .. how much i am consuming..
now what to do about it... oh does'nt this sound familer..
any suggestions feel free to give em

so i'm still hovering at the same weight it's been a week.. i'm concern i never heard about this happening so soon after surgery.

Frustrating as heck

Jun 08, 2008

so i'mm doing great everything is going down and staying down so i move on.. i try chicken.. yum..stays down.. I try tuna.. stays down no probs at all the only thing i have to watch out for is eating slow..i was a chef for many years and as a cook you learn to eat fast.. you only ever have a few min to shove something down before a order comes in. so eating slower has proven to be hard.but my body is not giving me the choice which is exactly why i had this thing. However the frustrating part comes when i step on the scale and see i went up 2 pounds! WTF is that all about. Any ideas?? is this just a part of adding foods back?

Finally!!!

Pretty tired

Jun 02, 2008

So today I am pretty tired.. i have been doing alot more then i probably should have but like i mentioned before these pains are keeping my from sitting down much and while i'm already up i might as well be getting something done. Today i might type out my bio for this profile. i guess we will see.. I call the doc today they will call me back.. Thats the thing with dr Boorse his nurses rarely call back within a decent time frame.. i mean usually it's the same day but do not hold your breath that its any time soon.I'm getting tired of eggs and soup.. i'm still just a little over a week out i'm hopeing that this is not somekinda sign of what i have in store for me.. I know i wont be able to eat much but i need to have some variety.. anyone have any suggestions?

owwwww

first day

May 28, 2008

well this is it my first day of a new life.. i had surgery on thursday but with recovery ect.. i really have not been able to look at this in any way but painfull. i still am experiencing alot of pain in the upper right area of my tummy. I have a doc appointment tomorrow to have it check out.. i feel it may just be gas but if thats the case give me something for it this is really causing alot of pain. I'm becoming really worried i keep hearing stories and they always start with "oohhhh so you got a gastric bypass.. well you know (insert name here) she had it and she's gaing all her weight back.."
I know this is a tool this is not the end all soulution to my obesity.. it's just a great start i have to establish new paths new wokouts.. ect.. it's just hard sometimes when people get talking..
