Ok...so I know I wasn't supposed to post until one month out but I have to post this. This last week and a half has been hell!!! I feel extremely..well...I'm having really bad mood swings. And I'm miserable. And depressed. I don't want to do anything but lay in my bed all day. I'm usually the type of person that is up for anything and very happy go lucky. I just have not been myself lately. Last night, I locked myself in my room all night crying my eyes out. And watching lifetime...gag. So post op depression does exist!! My brother got the worst of it. He's always been a slob...and leaves messes everywhere...and I like everything neat. Well I find myself yelling at him left and right..cussing him out all day...and just fighting with him constantly. No one has really been that supportive of it either. No one really understands I guess. Hell I don't even understand it. I just wish it would go away. On a lighter note, today has been a much better day for me! I've been keeping myself occupied by doing laundry, shampooing my carpet, and cleaning my bathroom...I have alot of energy and spare time. And I haven't gone off on anyone today...yet...lol. They kinda learned to keep their space tho so maybe thats it. Well I've only lost 3 pounds since last time....but thats with my scale. When I was a week out my scale said I weighed something like 305 and my doctors scale said I weighed 286. Doesnt make sense I know. So tomorrow is my appointment and I'm very excited to see what his scale says now. Well I'm still not done with my oh so exciting cleaning so I'll post more tomorrow!!!
18 days out...298 pounds

Ok so I have decided to use this blog thingie for my after surgery posts....and the posts below are my before surgery posts(except for the last one).....lol u get it don't ya? So as you can see I am 18 days out and minus 20 pounds. I went into surgery weighing a whopping 318 pounds and today I weigh a not so whopping 298. I am very happy with that:)...but still can not wait to lose more. I haven't exercised since surgery so today I moved my treadmill into my room so I can use it easily. I don't like people watching me when I exercise so I figured by moving it to my room I can be tortured in private. Also I bought some lovely weights from Target that I will start using also. It's weird..I think I'm losing alot of inches cuz all my pants fall off now...they were big to begin with...but now I can not wear them without looking like a gangsta..lol...I have kept everything down so far. I'm very proud of the fact that I haven't thrown up once:)...but I have felt like throwing up plenty of times...especially after I eat sugar free pudding. I haven't found a stable protein drink yet. So of course I'm having alot of trouble getting in all my protein. Just can't seem to do it yet. But water I drink like crazy...so thats good. Well I will post again at one month....everyone take care (((hugz)))
