I have been gone a long time, update
Aug 26, 2014
So the last time I blogged, I was up many pounds. I was really upset with my type of surgery, RNY, why oh why didnt I wait 6 more months for the VSG to be offered by my insurance? Anyway, I thought for sure I was having what they seem to call "bounce back weight" only it never stopped. In June of this year, I went back to Weight Watchers for a THIRD time since out of surgery at 183.4 pounds, up 64 pounds. WTH!!! The other two times I just couldnt lose with the point system, but this time they have you start for 2 weeks on the old core system which is now called "Simple Start." It is a miracle. I tried to lose on my own, protein first, water, protein shakes to no avail. I am so thrilled with this program that I had to share it.
By the way, I am the one who came out of surgery STARVING! I could always eat a lot of food and never understood how people went for months trying to get everything in when I always could. I am finally OVER those remarks and am down 20 lbs with WW. I walk on the treadmill everyday and eat from the giant list of foods they give you. At one point I was all the way down to 117. I was a skinny mess with no hair, so for now, my new goal is 150 and I will adjust as I get closer to the goal. For now, I am a happy camper!
