Week 15... Feeling great.... weight loss slow but steady...Sleeping so much better!

Not much to report at the 15 week 105 day mark after surgery..down to 204 from 260! .. Eating fine, walking 10k steps a day, lots of energy as well as motovation, that was missing before the surgery. I find myself in perpetual motion lately, unable or willing to slow down. Maybe that is a direct effect of actually sleeping so much better every night with the 55lb weight loss. This is an unexpected benefit I only recently realized. Weight loss over the last month has been steady but slow....averaging 1.5 to 2.5lbs a week. This is ok with me, with only the last 25 or so pounds to go, I seem to be getting into a good routine now that gets me enough Water and Protein as well as Vitamins. This was very evident with my 3 month checkup bloodwork which came out perfect....with the exception of the b12 which was high (due to drinking H20 with b-12 in it AND taking a supplement).

All in all I see a light at the end of the tunnel....and I think I have a very encouraging path to go on... I will say that I do not cheat on the sleeve diet restrictions... which explains the ease and non complication road I am on. I have stopped counting calories too. I am learning to make right choices and that seems to be working well for me. One tip that I will leave you with is.... Sometimes I get a feeling between meals that I am hungry.... I ask myself... am I really hungry? I have something to drink and wait 10-15 minutes and it will pass... everytime! It makes you think.... when it comes to hunger our brains lie to us all the time....

good luck to all on the sleeved journey!
