Hey All!!!! Did you miss me or did you not even know that I was gone????LOL...
Anyway Im finally home after 6 days at the Home....and I can tell you it was a very long 6 days....No relief and never got to leave the building....oh hum....
But the good part of it was the Pay Check that I got today.....NICE OH!!!! LOL Think Im going to put it in the bank and save it for my trip to Corpus with DD in Oct....its always good to have extra shopping money....lord knows that Im going to need clothes for the winter....as in I have none....zero....zilch....LOL But thats a great thing....
Well got home and of course I was having Scale withdraws....really...I was...thats the first thing that I did when I walked through the door....
And yep....I dont weigh the same as I did when I left......Dang it...I lost another 5lbs...!!! That takes me down to 113......And I did eat...somedays like a horse!!!
Guess the bright side is that Im only 3lbs away from where I had origanally wanted...but it concerns me that it wont stop....

Now I have to wonder when you say you eat a lot if that is really true. You didn't eat much for a long time so everything seems like a lot now. Are you counting calories or at least protein grams?Got to keep you healthy or you will end up staying in the home as a patient. Be careful because you can lose for up to 18 months just from the surgery. Eat a bag or two of pork rinds and you will stop losing(haha). Works for me.
LOL on the pork rines...personally I hate them...at least I did before surgery...
As far as eatting....here is a example...
b~ always a banana
L~ dont really do lunch until about 1-2ish.....usually a small peice of chicken..baked and then some pringle Stix
S~ what ever I can get my hands on....most of the time its chesse or crackers or both along with some deli lunch meat
D~ tonight was steak about 6 bites and also had a few bites of salad and 1 slice of chicken Casadia(sp) and ice tea
S~ most of the time its a banana with choc pudding (im hooked) or a cereal bowl full of mixed (fresh) fruit
I eat all the time.....but I will say that most of it is fresh fruit and Veg.
When to Starbucks and got a Viviano smoothy today and had them add a 3rd scoop of protein, for a total of 60g in one drink...but it high in sugar...natural at least
So I do eat but not alot in one sitting....just all day...between the Vit's and food thats all I seem to be doing...LOL

Losing 5 lbs. in a week doesn't seem like a problem I would mind having but I have about 26 to go to my first goal. I do notice the quantity of food people eat now and it seems like so much. I feel like I'm eating a lot but when I track it, I'm not.
I never liked pork rinds be surgery and I haven't tried them. Hubby used to get them at Silver Dollar City but I was never tempted, Aren't they made of hog fat? Sounds really gross to me. There were plenty of other things at SDS that I did like like the funnel cakes, the frozen lemonade and eating in the mine.

Jo....I agree on the pork rinds....yuck...LOL
5 lbs wouldnt have been a problem 7 months ago...LOL. Its strange feeling now to have to worry about keeping weight "on" instead of keeping it "off"...
I will agree with you about the food intake....I try to track every night now just to see what I have done for the day...that way I know if I need to eat more....most of the time Im around the 800-1000 cal mark....but would have sworn that I had eatten way too much. But on the same note fruit has alot of cal's...but at least its fruit and not junk like before....
Just wonder why couldnt I have done this years ago....with eatting all the fruit and good stuff.....for goodness sake I was a produce manager...LoL....
