10 Weeks Out 40 Pounds Down Since Pre-Op

I haven't really been on here as much as I used to mostly because I get so busy living my life now and being happy. Its the first time in my life I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Its not really about the weight loss that makes me so happy but the not having to worry about it as much anymore. I have 60 more pounds to lose to make it to my goal. My surgeon says I am ahead of schedule with weight loss. Sometimes Protein is still a b***h LOL but I refuse to drink a shake (Ugh!) So I eat every bit of it that I can. I have finally just in the last two weeks worked out my Fluid schedule to where I am getting 64 oz. Im not gonna lie..I don't always make the best choices but my main focus is my protein and I have been doing really well. I get sick of stuff very quickly so sometimes its a challenge to come up with different ways to eat. It really is a chore now. I get hungry from time to time..no where near what it used to be. I am satisfied with very little, and am a VERY cheap date LOL I have tried everything except raw veggies and fruits, but in two more weeks I should have the go ahead for those. I have no pain. Sometimes I overeat and get a sickly feeling that makes me miserable..lol but I learn from it and take my time. I do exercise but only 2 days a week. I try to be as active as possible in my free time so I hope that makes up for it. The great thing about losing inches and pounds is that you become more willing to do new things because you have the energy and the mobility and boost in confidence. If anyone has any questions I am more than willing to IM. I hope everyone is doing well!

Woo hoo, you are doing fantastic! Congrats to you...keep up the good work! It is a challenge but not too bad for me, I am having a pretty easy time with all this. Sure, we slip every once in a while but who hasent? Get back up on the horse and continue! I will be 13 weeks out tomorrow, 60 lbs gone, 45 since surgery...we are rocking it arent we?
