I forgot to update yesterday, but yesterday was 7 months post-op RNY for me! I'm down 126 since surgery and 181 from my highest.
-
I bought a dress today for vacation in Cali next month. Is this what it feels like to look in the mirror and feel pretty? o.O
-
http://imgur.com/aaukMbQ the first one is actually a normal-length skirt but my legs are so short that I made it into a dress! The second one is actually a dress. Now to just be brave enough to go out in public with my new clothes... D:

Does anyone else have periods of time when you can only eat a certain thing, and everything else repulses you? Or am I just crazy?

12 weeks post op today and down 55 pounds since surgery!
-
So! I have PCOS, and I've been off one of my very important meds (the one that keeps my hormones balanced), and since Sunday I have gained SIX POUNDS. Perhaps it's all water weight... I really want to believe it's just water weight. I knew this would happen when I forgot this med in San Diego and had to wait to refill it, but I can't deny, it's sending me into a bit of a panic. SIX! :'( In three days!
-
I think my 5-week stall may have finally ended... :'D
-
Trying out two 15-minute vigorous workouts a day, one when I wake up and one before bed, to see if it improves my metabolism and general tiredness. Cross your fingers!
-
Late last week, I started back on a hormone balancing medication for my PCOS, and not only did my stall end but I've lost 6 pounds since Monday... ha! XD
-
17 inches between the armrests on my flight to California. It's going to be a tiiiiiiiight squeeze. We'll see. :/
-
It seems monumentally unfair that I have to have a sinus infection and horrid menstrual cramps at the same time, all just two weeks before I'm supposed to move to a new place. At least my throat is killing me so I can't eat a bunch of crap from the stress.
-
Being tested hard today. It's been one self-esteem hit after another since I woke up, and all I want to do is hide in my room and eat ramen noodles, and I can no longer do that to soothe myself. Today really stinks.
-
Okay. Time to get back on track. Let's do this! >
-
7 weeks post op today, and 37 pounds down.
-
14 weeks post op and 67 pounds gone since surgery! This is my first week losing 7 pounds in one week. Craziness. o.o
-
I haven't been around much! I started school Monday and let me tell you, this has been one of the longest weeks of my life. It feels like Monday was weeks ago. I have two 12-hour days and two that are at least 6 hours but will almost always be closer to 10 hours after factoring in studio time. Bring it on! This workload is huge and intimidating but I'm truly loving it. I do have a slight problem, though... I've been horrible about getting calories/water in. I'm going to have to figure out how to balance this new life... D:
-
Trying out a Quest Pumpkin Pie protein bar right now, and it's absolutely delicious!
-
Who else reeeeeeeeally really wants to stress eat today? :/
-
Like a good fool, I turned coverage on at 7 and have been half paying attention. I'd already decided on dinner early in the day, but about an hour ago considered crackers & cheese as an 'appetizer.' I didn't do it, though, having told myself that eating more than is smart won't change anything that needs changing, but it will make me feel stoopid.

-
That annoying feeling when your scale and the doctor's scale say two different things. >.<
-
After almost 7 weeks of losing very slowly, I lost 2 pounds overnight.
-
I have discovered that pickles do some really unfortunately things to my digestive system. :'(
-
The week before last, I lost 7 pounds. This past week I stalled. Them's the breaks. I'm less bothered than I thought I would be.
-
Finally found a way around my egg avulsion - simple and delicious 5-minute egg drop soup! 1.5 cups of water, a bit of bouillon, some garlic and paprika, and two eggs beat together. Perfect meal, 13 grams of protein.
-
Had my first physical therapy/workout session since surgery today. I don't think I've ever been this exhausted, but it also feels good to know I'm finally getting my body back.
-
It took me 12 days to lose the water weight I gained rapidly from being off my meds. I won't be doing that again!
