First month...down 31 lbs!



Recommended Posts

I am so happy to have my first month in and I am down 31 lbs. The Dr. was very pleased with my progress. It is getting easier to eat the Protein and I still enjoy a couple of Protein Drinks every day. I can actually say that every day gets easier.

The third week was a bit tough with very little weight loss, but I was told to expect that because they body is adjusting to the surgery and it often happens, but this fourth week I lost real good.

I just wish I felt like cooking. The smells still bother me and I hope in another week or two I will feel like it. For now hubby has gotten me a couple of fish meals out...grilled tilipia and salmon and some chicken from Boston Market. I divide it up into several meals. I had to freeze some tilipia because you can only eat it so many days in a row. This week I can eat a bit more so that is helping. I did manage to make one dish. My hubby browned up some ground turkey, I added a can of tomatoes and let it simmer for an hour and then added a can of kidney Beans and some chili powder for a chili dish. I froze a number of meals.

Congrats girls!!! Time sure is flying by. Isn't it nice to actually be on some good food finally? I'm finding the meats are going down better every day. My daughter made chicken enchiladas yesterday and I enjoyed the insides... shredded chicken, salsa, kidney Beans, and a pinch of low fat cheddar cheese. She sent me home with the left overs and froze some. I can't handle the same thing over and over. So many things I like my husband doesn't and I can't eat it four times in a row. I did that with some fish and finally and to freeze the rest.

At one month out are you finding your stomach can hold a little more? I seem to be getting the meat down easier.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
