almost 4 months out...
Mar 21, 2010
well its been a couple months since ive posted so i figured id update... i am now down to 202.. thats 66 pounds gone!! i feel really good and not really having any problems. i can eat most foods, and can tolerate some snacks such as candy and diet sodas (in very small quantities) without feeling dizzy or dumping. i have experienced a little bit of the side effects of having gastric bypass surgery.. hair loss and dehydration mostly, but im working on those as much as my new pouch allows me to. i go in march 31st for my first lab results so fingers crossed there. my mind is starting to catch up with my weight loss finally and im not always feeling so horrible about being over weight. ive passed my first plateau in weight loss and survived.. i still try not to step on the scale everyday.. i usually manage about once a week but still glare at it every time i walk by it in the bathroom. im excited that i only weigh 27 pounds more than my husband now, although our wrestling matches are a little more in his favor now.. have u ever wrestled with a soldier?? lmao!! theyre tough! hes been great with the whole thing.. he stays on my ass about exercising which is annoying although its exactly what i need! hes always touching me and saying wow i can feel your ankles and your wrists or is that a little muscle i feel there.. cheesy i know but thats why i love him! and its just the kind of encouragement i need! that and those new size 14 capris i just bought that i can almost button!!! HELL YES!! i havent been in a 14 since i was in high school! im so looking forward to the next year and seeing how things will turn out and finally being able to have some plastics done. a huge thanks to all who have helped me and answered my questions im sure ill have more (WARNING!! lol).
