so frustrated

May 13, 2012

Well, here I am. August will be my 2 year surgiversary and I am dissapointed in my progress. my beautiful daughter was born completely healthy 6/2011 and after all was said and done I lost 78 pounds despit ethe pregnancy. Believe I was diligenta bout my nutrition and vitamins and although it was terrifying to learn that I had gotten pregnant 1 month after surgery everything turned out beautifully. Since her birth 11 months ago, I have effortlessly gained 23 pounds instead of losing the additional 37 that I needed to lose to get to my realistic goal of 140. I am so frustrated. I have not been able to work out as much as I would like but have recently gone back to proteinb shakes for breakfast. Itypically have sald with chicken or tuna & balsamic vinagrette dressingfor lunch and then eat whatever is for dinner. Yes, I admit to probably snacking a bit more than I should and totally understand why I havent lost any more weight but am terrified that I've gained so easily and am now back at 200 pounds. Im still 55 away from my highest weight but dont feel like it at all. I am in the process of looking into revision surgery. Not sure if DS or RNY would be the best bet for me or if Aetna or Bc/Bs would be the best insurance for revision. It is open enrollment time and I havethe option to switch. I'll update when I figure it all out.:)
