It’s been about a month since my last entry and I’m down 8 more pounds! I’ve never been so happy to be a loser!!
I think I want to write this entry in list format since I have a lot to talk about..
-Thanksgiving was great! I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to eat *real* Thanksgiving food, but I did. I just had 4 ounces of it
-Since I’m not eating a lot of food, my cravings for desserts have gone down (they are still there but not as much). Most times I’d just rather eat a meal then waste time on a dessert which wouldn’t be so filling.
-Like I said before, I still like dessert. But rather then trying to squeeze it in after every meal like I sometimes did pre-surgery, instead I just have something small at night which satisfies me. Last week I made a peanut butter pie recipe that I got from the Lapband website. AMAZING! Hubby even had a slice and thought it was super sweet and rich. He almost didn’t believe me when I told him the main ingredient was sugar free jello pudding!
-Going out to eat has decreased to maybe once a week if I’m lucky. This has saved us soo much money!!
-I found a bunch of support groups (both online and offline) that I am taking advantage of now. My surgeon also has a support group that runs once a month that I will be trying out. I even signed up for a Weight Loss Surgery cooking class at Celebration Hospital! Soo awesome to have people that really understand what I’m going thru.
-I’m up to walking 1.5-3 miles at least 3 times a week. Doing a 5K in January with hubby! You should join us!
-My clothing is falling off of me. I have lots of clothing starting at size 24 (starting size, but now it’s falling off of me) all the way down to 18, so I’ll be covered for the most part till then. Except right now my smaller clothing is still a little too snug, but my larger clothing is too large.. Oh lord.. me and my Skinny Bitch Problems..
-Recipes: I’ve been in search for yummy simple recipes.. I was thinking about creating a FB group for recipe swapping.. Let me know if you would participate!
-Oh yeah! Christmas is coming up soon and I’ll be traveling to NJ to see the family. It will be nice to get on a plane and be a little smaller, a little more comfortable in my seat.
I can’t think of anything else…..sooooo.. until next time!
