One Month Post Op

[alovio 76]

So today is my one month post op, I was sleeved on 5/20. First let me throw some numbers at you. 6 months ago I wieghted in at 458. I lost 68 pounds getting ready for surgery, mostley by calorie counting. on 4/20 I was sleeved my weight was 390. Today I am weighting 358, lost 32 pounds in first month. First of all I have been pushing myself. In the morning before work I walk/jog 3.5 miles before work. And then after work I try and do 1 hour of cardio. So far its worked for me. When i started this journey I was wearing a size 58 pants, today my friends that also had sleave gave me some hand-me-downs to wear because my clothes are getting baggy. I couldnt beleave a size 48 fit me good. WOW!!! Made my day, starting to really like the way I look again and i feel 100 times better than last year at this time. Really excited about the future in a really long time. Just feeling grateful and happy, havent had that feeling in a long time. Just to give you a sample of what i eat , never more than 1/2 cup of food. And beleave me I have gotten sick my share of times. I Am I have 1/3 cup of egg whites with a slice of ham. mid morning I have my premier shake. for lunch usally a Soup or a 1/2 cup of Beans. then next few hours I take down Isopure drink. then after gym I make myself a shake with frozen fruit and frozen veggies with whey powder Protein. I think key to my success is the walking and cardio. I am walking/jogging about 15 miles a week. I havent jogged in 15 years. It amazes me that i can jog. Life is good. Everyone good luck dont mean to brag but hopefully motivate. Walking is the key people. I feel like the weight of a teenager is off my back
