6 months post-op

Jun 07, 2010

It seems like just yesterday that I had this done....but then it seems like forever.

It's been 6 months and I'm down 75 lbs. Woohoo !!!!

I've heard of cross over addiction, where you find a new passion other than food....I think Ive turned into a spendthrift.
I used to be the chinchiest person I know....I could save a dime and feel rich....My bank account is suffering badly...I've gotta get a grip. I have things that I need to do with that money, important things, like PS...yet I keep spending it on "junk". No really,  junk...I bought a broke down truck at a garage sale for $300.00.....We are gonna fix it up for the boys to drive when they get old enough...they are 7 and 10....what was I thinking....I bought a yard ornament is what Ive done.....OYE !!!

My wt loss has been wonderful...I'm so happy that Ive had this done. I want to tell everybody how awesome this is and encourage them to consider it....I even thought to myself, if I won the lottery I would do a foundation to help ppl who couldn't get insurance funding and wasn't able to self pay...that would bring me so much joy!!! I must start playing those numbers...hahaha

I'm gonna post a monthly breakdown to keep up with my  poundage

By date that's 74 #,    I weigh 175 now but that doesn't get added in till next month...hahaha
The NP at the surgeons office said I should look really good at 150 lbs....so that's what I consider the surgeons goal as he never really set one for me....My personal goal is 125 lbs.


I still think I need  a nutrition coach....I stick to the protein side of things, but, wonder everyday if this is "it"....I don't do carbs so well....they make me sleepy...and have a tummy ache sometimes.

I find it hard to cook enough meat and keep it on hand to just grab and go.... I need help in that department....

I wish everyone well in all their endeavors.... love to you !!!
