Maintaining
My surgiversary is the 13th. I'm down 172 pounds. I have actually lost more than I weigh. I'm 2 pounds from not being overweight any longer. I have trouble believing I"m overweight. I wear size 8 in most things. It's the smallest I've ever been in my whole life that I can remember. Just had my year labs drawn. I will get the results Monday. I'm hoping my protein level has gone up and my vitamin D is where it should be. Both have been low. I had a bone density done and it was good, so my calcium must be working. I'm not always the best at taking my vitamins but most days I do get them. I still have foamies quite often. I wish I would learn to chew soon.
Hope everyone is doing well.
I am having "skin issues". I have seen many doctors because of it. I knew it was going to happen just didn't think it would happen so soon!
Cheers and congrats to all!
Live well, Love Much and Laugh Often
Well where do I begin......I had been sick ALL SUMMER and noone could tell what was wrong w/ me....well finally my PCP did some tests....GALLSTONES!!!!! Needless to say...w/ all of the lovely vomiting, etc that was going on everytime I had an attack.....it was best that I remained unfilled.....the ENTIRE SUMMER.....weight loss came to a halt....thank God I really didn't gain...(but I did see 199 for a hot minute...loololol) Deathly ill.....but I saw it!!!!!
I had my gallbladder removed two mths ago....and I feel great! I've now had two fills...but I still don't feel full after I've eaten...I have to just stop myself...if that makes any sense.....I call it "sometimey" restriction....some days I take one bite and it's rough going down...other days I feel as though I could eat a house....clearly not where I need to be....but I'm working on it.
My 1yr. aniversary was Dec 14th...and I put together some pics just to see how far I've come......the scale might not be saying anything to me.....but those pics certainly did!!!!
So now on any given day I'm between 210-220.....I really need to put things in perspective.....I was 259/260......anything is better than going back there again!!!!! (but I still can't help being sad abt. not losing more....I'm working on these feelings)
I have another fill in Feb...hopefully I can go back sooner b/c I need to get on track
Happy 2009!!!!!
