Heading Back To Work Tomorrow And Almost 1 Month Out

Well tomorrow I head back to work. I chose to take 3 weeks off so that I would be past all of the crazy eating stages. some time before I was scheduled to be off I was chosen for a new position at work and had been a little scared to tell my new boss about me going out on leave. Well he was completly wonderful told me not to worry about anything that we would work on getting me trained once i came back, and that I just needed to take care of myself right now. I am glad i have some super supportive people i work with my boss being one also another supervisor who also had the lap band, and some great friends. I an kinda excited to be heading back because it will give me somthing to do but I am also sad. I would to not have to work but then the bills would not get paid lol...... I was blessed to have the 3 weeks off the last week I was able to soend it with my twin bc she had the lap band on 11/10. She teaches and i dont so there is hardly ever a time where we are both off for an extended time.

 

This thursday happend to not only be thanksgiving but also my 1 mo mark since surgery. I have stalled a little since surgery the day of surgery when i went in i weighed 349 after i got down to as little as 340 but have gone up a little ever since changing back to mushies and now solids. as of this morning i am sitting at about 345ish I pray with the fill coming up actually on 11/30 that it will jump start my weight loss again. I know I still need to watch the choices that i am choosing to eat.

 

Well I am calling it a night I have a long day ahead of me tomorrow.

I also have my first fill on 11/30 but I do not know what I currently weigh. I do not own a scale so I have to wait until I go to the doctor. I do not think I am going to purchase a scale either because I do not want to get hung up on the numbers. So many people put so much pressure on themselves and weigh themselves entirely too much. Try not to worry about weight loss while you are healing. Remember we are not allowed vigorous exercise for a while so cut yourself some slack and remember that it will happen.
