Tuesday is 1 year surgiversary!
Mar 14, 2010
Wow! Tuesday, March 16 will be my 1 year surgiversary...where did the time go? Went to Kaiser lab today and had 11 vials of blood drawn; teased the lab tech it was my 'vampire' draw LOL I am almost where I want to be.. but the losing has slowed down somewhat. I'm not worried...it just gives my body a chance to catch up and me time to learn how to 'manage' this tool while maintaining. I had a really really long 'dry' spell, from November to the end of February of bouncing back and forth with 3 lbs...about drove me nuts! I just made sure I got my vitamins, water and protein in before adding anything else to my daily intake. Eggs still are not my friends..no matter how they are cooked but they are the only food that I avoid. On occasion, I have 'pushed the envelope' testing my new pouch...sometimes I paid a price and sometimes I was surprised to find I could tolerate a 'treat'...but in minute portions. I am a firm believer that I will never go on another 'diet'..but I have and will continue to eat within specific guidelines...protein first and portion control.Up to this point, I don't think my journey has been all that different from others. We each lose at our own pace, fight our own demons and learn from our own mistakes..but we all want the same thing...a healthier, happier life and future. I'm grateful for having insurance that covered my surgery. I am even more grateful for the friends and support I have found here on OH and thru the support groups I attend. All of you are PRICELESS!! Thank You!!
