Moving along

Aug 27, 2010

The scale still isn't friendly, but my body is definitely changing. I had an "AH HA!" moment on Monday. I was meeting a friend for coffee and I saw my reflection in the window. My hips didn't look huge, my thighs were less thunderous, and I had a cute shape. I actually had to stop and soak it in that that was actually me! My friend chuckled bc he has been thru this already and asked me, how does it feel? It felt invigorating and really gave me the motivation to move along on my journey.

So activity wise, we are doing better.  I got my trainer back and had 2 good sessions. We are walking and jogging intervals outside, which was definitely different and very exciting. I am not a runner, but I've always been envious. He thinks I can run a 5K within a few months. That would definitely be something! Maybe Craig and I can start running together. I am just worried about how it will do on my joints.

I'm super exciting my hubby's schedule is changing. His new shift will put us back on track for getting to the gym to do cardio at least 3x a week and I will have my trainer at the house about 2x a week. VERY VERY EXCITED. I'm ready to get refocused and tweek my body into something healthy and sexy!

I think with this surgery, the hormonal fluctuations have been the biggest challenge. My emotions have been all over the place. I have started seeing a therapist to help me with my issues, but its still something crazy. I knew it was going to happen, but I wasn't prepared by the intensity of it.

I'm a 6cc, which definitely is better than 4cc, but I'm still able to eat, just not as much carbs. Hopefully my next fill will give me more saiety. But the interesting part this week, I'm not really all that hungry. For breakfast, my appetite decreased, I'd be pretty hungry at lunch & eat a big meal, and I would almost not eat dinner. Kinda strange.

So here is to moving forward into more positive reinforcement!
