I have been MIA

Nov 20, 2011

Sooo...surgery came and went. I was not in the hospital 24 hrs. Very little pain at all and I am whimp! I was back to work a week and a half after and I was getting restless. I did have really bad pain in my back from the gas it lasted a few weeks, but now I feel  great! Today I am down 85 lbs!!!! How crazy is that?!?! I seriously cant believe it, its weird I dont see a difference at all. I did go on a shopping trip this weekend and I am a size 24. Thats two pant sizes in 3 months...seriously?!?!? I am also in a 2x shirt. I can shop in regular store now. I LOVE Macys! I am not buying a lot of clothes, but my co workers pulled my aside and said I needed new pants (my size 30 were falling off!) I have been super active at work which is good. Its amazing how much energy I have and how much I am able to walk without stopping. I just got cleared to work out so I am excited about getting in the gym. I really wanna get a trainer but they are pricey! We will see...
I am struggling with wanting bad food. I want pizza, ice cream, french fries you name it I want it. I did find Sugar Free Oreos :) I only have two and I am happy.I also have been sipping water with my meals. I am having a hard time getting my protein in. I try to have a protein shake every morning for breakfast, but it take me all morning to finish it so I am usually not hungry for lunch. One good thing is I am saving a lot of money on food :) It is really hard to cook b/c of the small portions.
I said I was feeling great, but I am having really bad pain in my hips. I have been told it is normal b/c of the weight shifting. It is very painful. I am going to go to the chiropractor to see if they can help. I feel like my hips are totally out of place. We will see. Work has been a big difference too and they gave me a raise and a job title change is coming soon. I finally feel like I am do my best and not feel held back. I still have a long way to go, but it is encouraging to see all the changes starting to happen. I promise to keep you all posted better than I have been.
