1 Month Check-up
Yesterday I went for my one month check-up and I am -29 lbs, which is awesome. I admit, I was a little disappointed however, because in my first week I had lost about 19 lbs--which means in the past 3 weeks I've only loss 10 lbs. My Dr. was able to put it in perspective for me however, and asked when was the last time I was able to loose 29 lbs in 4 weeks? He has a point. I'm trying to have a positive attitude, but I'm still in the "oh my goodness, this is so hard stage". I know it will get easier and eventually I'll be happier. That's another thing that really has been getting to me--the word "eventually". "Eventually" I'll feel better. "Eventually" I'll look better. "Eventually" you will be able to eat, etc. I am so tired of that word! Trust me, I know I did the best thing for myself, and I'm trying to stay positive. It's just hard. But who said that this journey was easy?
