Well I havent posted in a while so I thought I would, here is my 2 month picture.



As of today I am down to 220. It is moving a little slower this month compared to last, but nothing I can complain about! Aside from this journey I have exciting news, my son just had his last lumbar puncture chemo treatment!!! It has been a long 3 years, the last hurdle is one more treatment through his port then he is done with maintenance. Then we have to hold our breath for a few more years praying that the Leukemia doesnt come back.

I have still been having severe constipation, I had an upper GI with small bowell follow through, and EGD, and now tomorrow I am having a colonoscopy. The best news is I will have been scoped from all angles now and there will be no part of my GI tract that has not been seen! Haha. The gastroenterologist thinks my colon isnt working, hopefully there is nothing really wrong, I guess I will know tomorrow.

I did get my hunger feeling back as well, that is not something I missed! I do feel satisfied off of a few ounces of food though, so that is good, I also feel over full even easier now. I do find myself tempted to munch or snack between meals, I have some jerky and nuts for the times I just cant stand it and have to munch, at least I am helping get more protein in. A small piece of jerky or a few nuts really holds me over between meals. I am worried about returning to old habits though.
