I have my small pouch days and my bottomless pit pouch days. On the bottomless pit days, I try to stick with no sugar added popsicles and fudgsicles. On my small pouch days, it is hard to get in all my protein. Those days I try to eat a lot of greek yogurt with roasted soy beans to make sure I get some protein for the day.
Once again I will say, this surgery fixes your stomach, not your head. There are days that I am quite pleased with the weight loss, especially days that I realize the size 22 pants are finally get loose fitting in the waist. I truly cannot wait to get into a size 20 pants!!! But then there are those days that all I can think about is the fact that I still have another 100 pounds to go. There are those days that all I can think about is food. I need to keep focused on the small goals. Better yet, I need to make some small goals. Lets see...
1. I would like to get below 245 by the first day of school. That is another 8 pounds in 3 weeks. My average weightloss is around 3 pounds a week. That should not be too much to ask, right?
2. I want to be able to wear a few size 20 pants (all depends on cut) by the time I start clothes shopping for the school year. I have refused to buy anything new (except for the reunion clothes) this summer.
Enough dwelling on weight and size. Here are a few pictures from my class reunion. I was voted "Most Changed." That could be taken in a good way or a bad way. I think most of my home girls that keep up with me on Facebook voted for me. I am pretty close to the size I was in high school. However, most remember me with long luscious hair from middle and high school. As you can see by the pics, my hair has all been chopped off. Woohoo!
