Been a while

Well, I now weigh 213. I should reach onederland by March. I feel good, but I need too up my iron and vitamin D and calcium. I'm working on all three.

Still trying too get into the Ymca to exercise, it's just gonna take some time.

I can tolerate fish, and cheese and some meats. But chicken and roasts and such are still hard on the innerds. in time i guess.

still gotta watch my carbs. It's hard when you're diet is still limited. No more vomiting in the a.m. Praise god for that.

I can fit into a size 18 swimsuit. : ) Legs are getting thinner and stomach is going down. I don't think I'll have a lot of hanging flesh. 

Although I'm not loosing as fast as others, I am steadily loosing. Need too push more proteins and lessen the carbs. I can do this, I know I can.

I want onederland so badly. Hopefully, definately by April. When I see my surgeon again.

New Year... New attitude

Long time, no post... But I'm 5 months out and eating better than before. Still not exercising, but that will change soon enough. Still have difficulty with the abdominal muscles. 

I'm down to 220lbs. I hope that by the next time I see my doc, I'll be in onederland. 

No more vomiting, which is a blessing. thank god. Had to adjust my vitamins, more iron, C and D3 plus trying too up the calcium.

This should even everything out by the next time I see him. In February, my PCP is doing a check on my iron. If it drops again, I'll get infusions. But, we'll see.

My clothes are down to an 18/20. Wow, haven't seen this size since college.

My mood is better also. Things are finally looking up for me with this surgery.
