Well I weigh 248.8 pounds now. I started at 274. I am amazed at my own progress. I haven't been this weight in over 5 years. I can hardly contain myself with glee.
I got sleeved on June 29th which was a Tuesday and I got back home on Canada Day which was that Thursday.
I was tired for a few days after getting home, and feeling sore but now I have been gardening and weeding for the last couple of days, resting in between of course.
The fluid levels I have been great with, it's the protein shakes that I can't seem to do. I mean I haven't had a protein shake in 2 days. The last one I had went right through me, but I will try again today now that I can mix in some fruits and puree it in.
Went to visit my mom yesterday, as my dad was just at my place earlier doing some work for me since I can't lift more than 10 lbs for awhile and he was installing an AC. I told my mom about my weight loss and she gave me a disgusted look and never said a word about that but she did however, say well if you would just follow a good program you would have lost the weight.
Helllooooooooooooo mom, I said. What the heck do you think I have been doing for the last 20 years and look where that has got me. I said you don't have things stacked against you. I do. I take after my dads side of the family from obesity and all other ailments including my blood type of RH -. Good thing I am taller than my aunts by at least 9", as then I would be a round ball (like them) instead of the pear shape I am.
I feel so happy with my decision and that I did the WLS.
More to come.................
Cheers!!
