Cheese Pleeze!

Any other WLS patients crave cheese like there's no tomorrow?I love it, crave it, have to have it... It has become the main item of my diet! Which isn't bad (I don't think).. It's protein, so it counts! But we are talking string cheese, cheddar cheese, hunks of Parmesan right off of the wedge, laughing cow, cream cheese, cottage cheese.. Nothing in large quantities of course.. But consistent just the same!

Every single meal.. small as it is, is completely centered around cheese.. and if it's not.. I usually eat a couple bites and then ditch it for a chunk of cheese! LOL!

It's the wierdest thing!!

Scale is moving again...

Yipee!

I had about a month long plateau... No matter what I did, that scale wouldn't budge!!



But I am delighted to inform you that it is officially moving again.. So new #'s are (drumroll, please)... Down 77 lbs in 8 mths!!!

PS.... Just realized it's the 12th... So it's really 8 months today! Wow... It's been a fun ride!! :-)

It's the little things..

Whoever came up with adult gummy-vites, I applaud you! I just love that twice a day I get to indulge in a little treat.... And it's mandatory!!



Haha! It's the little things that keep me smiling!!

Sorry it's been so long...

Wow! Things have been busy these days!! Sorry it's been so long since I've posted on here!

There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of new things to say, as things have settled in to quite a norm lately!

Just to update on progress, I've been struggling with a plateau period.. Stuck at 75 lbs lost for almost a month... A friend told me that she heard our bodies can have a memory of a weight we were at for a long time before.. Which may be the problem.. I think I might be at the weight I was in highschool! (though I can't remember what that was... Just know I fit into some of those clothes that my mom saved) Anyways.. Hopefully I'm able to start losing again... I finally broke the plateau yesterday and dropped another pound.. For a total of 76! Yeahoo! Still needing to go for another 20 lbs according to my ideal weight/height chart! But I can't complain, plateau or not, I'm in a size 6!! And I did still lose inches during that month.. Just not pounds!


Here's our picture from Easter!

Still loving the journey!!

PS... Starting to get alot of questions about whether we'll try for a baby in August.... Is it normal for me to be completely scared about that?? Yikes!
