Stall Ended and Surgeon Visit

Thursday, September 10th, 2009

Ok so my stall finally ended and my weight loss was …

August 28 - 375 lbs

August 31 - 372.5 (-2.5)

Sept 4 - 370.5 (-2.0)

Sept 7 - 368.5 (-2.0)

I’m losing 4-5 lbs a week so I’m happy. And I’ve no more food upsets. Feeling good and starting to notice my body changing. According to my scales on Sept 7th I had lost 100 lbs since first seeing the surgeon in June 2008. WOW!!!!

I had a follow up today with the surgeon. My blood tests were perfect … calcium, sodium, b12, sugars, everything was normal except for my iron. Last time it was at 4 and this time at 14 so they want me to continue with the iron supplements. They were very happy with everything. They told me my bmi was 76 when I first came to them and today it is 60!!

I am really seeing this as the best decision I could have ever made.

Stalled

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Weighed myself today and according to scales I’m still 375lbs which is what I was last Friday. A little depressing that I haven’t lost in the past week but I supposed staying the same is better than gaining.

I had another vomit episode this week with a chicken, tomato and mushroom dish from my chef.

My friend Rob won some steaks at a dart tournament last weekend and brought me one. I LOVE STEAK!!! But I’m afraid to eat it so it’s in the freezer for now. I still need softer bits of meat.

Gonna try a new recipe this weekend at my mums. Will tell you how that goes. Stay tuned!!
