Feeling good and almost back to normal. The scale said 209 this morning.
To recap.
Jan 28, 2009 I weighed in at 269. In six months I lost 30 pounds through diet and exercise.
Sept 8, 2009 I weighed in at 239. In 40 days I lost 30 pounds due to weight loss surgery.
I have started eating very small portions of real food. I spent a day or too in Vegas last week and had prime rib! I took three bites off my friend's plate and was completely satisfied. The portion served was so huge and I remember thinking that I could have eaten the whole thing before. Our stretchable stomaches are a huge design flaw...sorry God, but why do we have the capacity to eat such huge portions, when we can survive on such little food?
As I am introducing real food back in to my diet I am struggling a bit with portion control. I have eaten too much three or four times and it is not a pleasant experience. One little bite will put me over the edge and I am slowly learning when I should stop eating by listening carefully to body. When I have had too much, it feels like severe heart burn AND that there is something stuck in your esophagus. It lasts for a minute or too and I never want to feel it again.
I'll be blogging monthly now, instead of weekly or bi-weekly. Thanks all for reading my little blog, see you next month :)
