2 months out
Nov 30, 2009
Well I am officially 2 months post op today. It has been quiet a journey. I really have not been doing very well lately. I haven't been getting in enough protein or fluids and my weight loss slowed to a slow creawl. I have recently started on protein drinks again and found I do so much better when I eat all day long. I know that sounds crazy, but it works for me. In fact I lost 3 pounds this weekend while we were camping, and I ate all weekend. I have added some carbs in now. My new favorite is 1 slice of whole wheat bread toasted with peanut butter. I eat this about twice a week. I have had to buy some new clothes. now I am in size 16 jeans comfortably, and Large T shirts are slightly baggy, but not enough for mediums. I seem to have lost more weight in my face and upper body over all. Last month when I measured, I was down 29 inches I think.On another note, my self esteem has not improved any, and I am still battling with the green headed jealousy monster. I still see myself as fat and unattractive no matter what others tell me. My husband never has said anything other than, to get to a place where I am happy. He didn't care whether I had the surgery or not. He says he will always love me the same no matter what size I am.
