Here is some food I’ve eaten. Jimmy Deans Light turkey sausage, eggs and potatoes 1/2 serving or less about 2-3.5 ounces. 130 calories and 8g of Protein. The turkey sausage and cheese is 20g of protein but it usually takes me two sittings to eat it.

PERSONAL TRAINING

So, I’ve done PT before. I was excited about the place I found; I thought it was in my budget. I felt like it was a bait and switch when I walked in a month later and they said the training I wanted was $200 more. Luckily, after a very stressful afternoon we found a middle ground. I start tomorrow on my twice weekly semi-private lessons. I really need this because I need the accountability. I already have aerobic equipment in my house so a gym doesn’t make sense. I need an accountability partner who will encourage me to meet my health goals. So, back to training for me. If I had never left maybe I wouldn’t have gotten to the size I was. Either way, it always brings a smile to my face to make progress with my physical fitness.

WEIGHT LOSS AND EXERCISE

So, I did my personal training evaluation and watched some motivational videos and I finally got on the elliptical at home! I know it’s a small step but today I woke up a pound less so feeling great!

WEIGHT UPDATE-almost 4 weeks post op

Down to 328 this morning! In 8 lbs I will meet the “normal range” of weight loss after surgery. That would be 25 down in 6 weeks with two more weeks to go. Here’s a photo from my baritastic app of my losing. Also, I’ve been losing the app for inches and I’ve lost 10 inches overall! I have my first full personal training session today so I’m super excited!
