6 month post op update!
Hey Guys,
Welp... I am offically six months out! So I thought I'd give a little update. I have lost 96 pounds and I am 44 from my goal! I went shopping today with my hubby yesterday at old navy, i have been wearing size 16's, but hubby said just go try on these 14's, so I did thinking for some reason that they wouldn't fit because they looked small. I get into the dressing room to put them on, they fit, they zipped, and then I looked at myself and they are LOOSE!!! I was like OMG, It has been years since I have been able to fit into that size. As for tops I am no longer plus size. Just womens XL!!! Food is being tolerated well, but my protein is still a struggle everyday. I am so glad to hear that they other post op's are doing well, and I always look forward to hearing everyone's updates!!!
Hugs,
Jacqueline
Thank You! You'll be a looser before you know it ;) I wouldn't worry about being depressed with out food. I thought the same thing, that I enjoyed eating, and "treating myself" and even relying on food to get me through rough times ( sad, bored, whatever... ) The difference now is amazing. I see food in a whole new light, maybe the light that it's supposed to be looked at, for nutrition and to keep your body alive! It's weird though because sometimes I feel as if I have no release now, I used to use food as such an unhealthy crutch that when I get those feelings now ( sad, bored, whatever.... lol ) I don't know what to do. I find myself trying to find ways to deal with it other than grab a pint of ice cream ( cause I can't now ) idk. That's just my experience. Your gonna do great!!!!
Hugs,
Jacqueline
