post surgery weight gain
I will try the unrestricted low carbs for a week first. If I don't drop weight I will start cutting back total calories. I want to lose it quickly because I got so fat.

I didnt really gain over the holidays as I have had some kind of yucky virus but I am still about 6-7lbs away from my happy weight (Go figure with these arbitrary numbers we come up with - old disordered eating thinking quite possibly! - but at least I'm aware of it lol).
So my plan is to up the shakes, up the protein , give away the candy and eat a ton of tuna salad, rotisserie chicken salad, boiled eggs, pepperoni chips, pork rinds, cheese cubes, and chicken wings and some chilli, meat loaf, cauliflower cheese etc and get my butt moving each morning for a walk and maybe it'll work its magic!
Oh and my new years resolution is to drink more water!

Thank you all for you help in getting back on track. Been off track longer than I care to admit. You forget....and think...OK, what was I supposed to be doing?
And, because I was already eating low carbs yesterday before I came here and dropped most of the bad carbs yesterday......I dropped 4.1 pounds yesterday. Went from 146.4 down to 142.3. So I am on my way.
Today I should do even better because got rid of even more of the carbs - gave them away.
And hopefully I can go to gym because all foster teens are leaving today. Love them but....YAY!
