The stall has sorta kinda passed although I don’t know if I’ll see quick weight loss as fast as I did for the first 2 months and I have to adjust to that 😦 Just like being a child and spoiled by a Grandparent, you expect it and I have to adjust now. I’m now officially at 87lbs lost leaving me at 213lbs down from 300lbs!
Thet two pictures of me in a black shirt and jeans (obviously) was PRE surgery in April 2013, the rest are post surgery in August 2013. I’ve included pictures from the gym, where I was trying to show off my tan line after a spray tan and have blocked out some of the “boob” part as that’s not my point. What I was hoping to show was my waist and smaller face (in the picture next to it).
I’m now doing a walk/jog instead of just walk where I jog the distance between two hydro polls then walk and alternate this for about 25 minutes. Never in my life did I imagine me jogging, even if for just 30 seconds to a minute! And as shocking as it sounds, I can finally see (87lbs less) the change in me. I seriously couldn’t (hardly) notice the difference before but it’s clear to me now! My wedding is in 17 days and I’d love to be at 100lbs lost but I won’t actually set that goal as an official one as it’s not likely achievable nor necessary. Maybe I’ll aim for 90lbs lost which only leaves me 3 more lbs to go! That’s a nice round number 🙂
Still loving my FITBIT and have talked a few people into getting one! I also find it neat that I don’t have to work myself up into doing exercise, I just jump into the idea and happily go! I’ve set a goal at my gym (Curves) to go twice a week there (do more at home with walk/jogging) and try to loose 14lbs a month. For an average non bypass person, that goal would be unhealthy and unrealistic but for me, it’s a tough one but possible.
Eating…I struggle with getting 60g of protein into me a day but I’m pleased that my appetite stays small and the portions are easy to manage and I eat at the most 1300 calories a day but usually stay around 1000 calories. That goal happens more naturally too as I don’t plan for it nor log my food intake until later in the day and usually discover that I’ve taken in very few calories!
