Feeling Great!



Recommended Posts

Well hello there everyone - long time no see!!!


It has been 3 weeks since my last post (that sounds like I'm in confession!!)


I've been on a wonderful holiday in Khao Lak and Phuket Thailand. The weather was great, the resorts were amazing and I've come home feeling fully re-charged.


On my holiday, although I didn't over-eat, I definitely ate whatever I wanted and didn't think too much at all about the calories - except when it came to cocktails, I couldn't get it out of my head that I was consuming empty calories with no nutritional value.


I am so happy to report that I've returned home weighing exactly the same as when I left. I know the goal of this thing is to actually lose weight, but I have never ever in my life come home from a holiday without gaining weight. I really am so thrilled that I've managed to maintain it this time.


I even managed a few NSV's on my time away - particularly shopping in stores that I have never found anything in before that would fit my size - yipppeee!!!


My band definitely helped in this regard, it let me know whenever enough was enough, so I didn't try to put more food in than I could.


I'm now back on my usual eating plan and and feel so much happier and healthier for my time away.


I've attached some pictures for your viewing pleasure - I think the smile on my face says it all!!!

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ˜ญ. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! ๐Ÿ˜ž
