6 Days And Made My One Month Goal

So here I am six days post op and I am down 15 pounds.

 

 

 

No complaining there, I now weigh 297 pounds and yes I feel great about it.

 

 

 

Sure it helps that Scotts mom game over this morning and was like, "Oh wow Tom your really looking great!"

 

 

 

Thanks mom, just what I needed to hear this morning.

 

 

 

I can't believe that in the last year I have lost 46 pounds. But most surprisingly I made my one month pre op goal in six days! This morning I noticed an even bigger change, the loss of communication with my gut. And more so with my body when it comes to signals like, "Hey Thomas...need some fuel down here!" Fact is I got up at six am, on my own by the way just popped up like wow it's really going to be a beautiful day today. I started and went about my day, even cooked waffels for the kids. Never once did I feel any temptation to eat it, no desire at all and let me tell you I LOVE WAFFELS! By 11am it dawned on me, when I was yelling at my boys that they needed to drink some water that I in fact had not. Not even one sip.... what the heck?

 

 

 

I like the way my friend Barbie put it, "Imagine for a moment living life where your hunger no longer controls every waking moment of your day?' Suddenly I see all the stuff I have been missing out on while stuffing my face. All the time I waisted for what? Now I am making my kids and husband nuts; i've gotten back into cycling again, doing it twice a day. I'm taking my kids to the park, going for walks with them, playing wii fit, board games, shooting hoops, and holy shit I thought I was cleaning fool before well look at me now.

 

 

 

Life is good really, although I am worried about the loss of communication with my body. This is what I signed up for and as of today 15lbs less in 6 days I only see my life getting better.

 

 

 

Oh and don't worry I have had 16 ounces of water now and will catch up with where I like to have myself at by this hour in maybe 30 minutes.

You are doing great but remember you still have to eat even though it is only a couple of bites. I made this pie with small pieces of chicken in creme of chicken soup, mash potatoes over the top with cheese on top of that in a pie dish and baked it. I took small piece like pie and could not eat it all. I got so full so fast. It is amazing how fast I get full. It is great. I use to shovel food in my mouth when I got real hungry, not anymore. I am happy your are under 300 and when you reach that under 250 it will wonderful. My goal is to be under 200 by summer. I hope I can do it and won't stop working for it. Have a nice day and think life, not food.
