Happy Halloween

Oct 29, 2009

Happy Halloween to all my OH family!  It's been a crazy month at home.  Our kitchen re-model is finally nearing completion and I can't wait to get the house back in order.  One would think it would be nice eating out for a few weeks when you don't have access to a kitchen, but it gets old very quickly.  I'll admit though I've done well making good food choices and taking left overs to work.  Another thing I'm proud of is I'm only 1 pound away from loosing 100 pounds.  YEAH!!  More good news is my hair loss seems to be slowing down and I can see some new hair growth.  Frank, my husband asked me one day when I was complaining about loosing so much hair if the surgery was worth it.  Well, did that stop me in my tracks.  "Of course it was worth it" I said adding, not that I want to loose all of it, but if I did it would still be worth it. 

I see my surgeon's PA November 4th for my 6 month post op, well actually it will be 5 1/2 months, but who's counting.  My blood work was all good at my 3 month post op so I'm looking forward to seeing how it's doing now.  I'm up to 800-1000 calories a day, based on her advise last check up.  Doing well on my protein around 80grams a day and getting my fluids in.  The protein has still been my biggest struggle since I'm still only eating around 1/2 to 2/3 cups of food per meal depending on what I'm eating.  Protein supplements are still a staple in my daily menu (I started to say diet) but menu is a better word.  Can't say I've fallen in love with exercise but I'm working on it.
