Four Months After

Mar 05, 2011

It has been four months since my surgery.  My husband came home today from his hosiptal stay following his RNY.  I am so proud of him.  I am feeling pretty good.  I still have the occassional vomitting, but am, for the most part, able to tolerate my diet.  I have been trying a few things that I probably would consider pushing the envelope.  I have tried  the occassional sugar free peppermint patty and peanut butter cup with no negative side effects.  I have also been sucking on sugar free lifesavers (with some unpleasant flatulence).  I have tried Lean Cuisine frozen meals with no problem, although I am very motivated to eat a diet comprised mainly of fresh produce and meats, very little processed and preserved if at all possible.  I am finding that I do have the feeling of hunger coming back. 

I am wearing a size 16-18 in most clothing.  I am happy with that and am anxious for my goal of size 14 to be realized.  Goodwill has been a lifesaver for me!  I am finding that as I lose weight it seems like everything is heading south.  Cellulite seems more pronounced than when my body was fuller.

I am so looking forward to doing this will my husband.  We have lots of activity planned for when the warm weather comes (kayaking, hiking, campling....YAY!!!)
