Topic: 10 weeks out
so i went for my 10 week follow-up today, the surgeons PA walked in and the first words out of his mouth were "Am I reading this right? 65lbs???" he was overly amazed at my progress so far and said things are so good that he doesn't want to see me for 4 months! he said at the rate I'm going i should hit the century mark by the time i come back then, that would put me under 200lbs, i haven't been that light in over 15yrs!!  i set my goal to be the same weight i was when i was 16 at 32, so i have until may to be under 200, but he's challenged me to be there almost a month ahead of time!!

I did pretty good this weekend! Haven't gone back to the gym because I hate it there...but we do have a 1.25 mile track around our local park that I not only speed-walked, but actually JOGGED a little bit of!  Trust me, two months ago...there would have been NO jogging even thought of.

I got a little bit of protein food down last night...but I'm still having tons of trouble eating anything that's supposed to be eaten. No meat products will stay down, and even dairy products I was good with earlier are starting to turn against me! I bought Isopure Plus yesterday to give a try and so far, those are good. 15gms of protein in 8oz and there's not a bad aftertaste like regular Isopure. Of course, I didn't like the $10.99 for 6 bottles...sheesh, I'm no millionaire! If it helps with the protein, though...I can't complain. I also ordered some protein bars made specially for bariatric patients and some soy nuts. I'm getting desperate, lol!

The weight continues to come off. I'm down to 262 today! That's a 53 pound loss from the surgery date! WOOT!!
