6 week pictures

For all of your inquiring minds, here are a series of pictures of me thus far... I can tell a small difference, but it IS a difference none the less!

6 week Update

Hey y'all!

Sorry I haven't updated in a little while. I have been crazy busy and then I came down with a cold/bronchitis... icky!

Anyhow, as of right now, I am down to 299 lbs!!! Woot Woot!!! I am so excited!

I weigh LESS now than I did when my husband and I got married nearly four years ago! How neat is that?

Pretty much everything is back to "normal" now. I can eat pretty much anything I want to - within reason - and that does not mean junk like French Fries and all of that crap. What I am referring to are things like: whole wheat pasta IN MODERATION, ground beef, salads, soups and things like that.

For the most part, I have had fantastic results without complications. I tolerate pretty much anything, and as long as I remember to slow down when eating, and not to forget to stop when I KNOW that I have had my portion then I am ok. In the beginning it was a task to know when the limit was. Usually, for me, about 1/4 to 3/4 cup of food at meals fills me up just depending on the density of the foods I have at the time. I also do not usually do breakfast too much, and don't snack a lot so I will eat a larger portion at dinner - but that portion is still the equivilant to what my toddler would eat for a meal (if not less).

Well, for now, that is about all... I will continue to update as much as I can.

Thank you to my new followers!! :)

Three Week Update

Hey y'all! So tomorrow is exactly 3 weeks post op. So far, I am down 30 pounds since surgery, and I am seeing a difference in my clothes now. I actually can fit into some clothes that I haven't been able to wear in TWO years!!! I was a little bit disappointed because I am at a stand still this week, but it happens... I will just weigh again tomorrow or Thursday and see where I am at... this happened to me in week two in the middle as well... Stood still, then BAM 4 pounds came off. So ya never know. Other than that, things are ok. I am still a little short in the stamina department, but the Dr. said that is normal after ANY surgery and it will take some time. I walk as much as I feel like doing, and always try to get outside when I am home... If you are outside, you are more likely to get up and MOVE :) Anyhow, I need to go, but I will update again soon!
