4 MONTH POST-OP UPDATE

Today is my 4 month surgiversary. I am officially down 57.2lbs. In the last month I lost 10.6lbs. My measurements will be on my YouTube channel. This was a rather hard month for losing weight. I was out of town in Nashville, I was in DC, and I have been sick for about two weeks. I haven’t been to the gym I over 2 weeks so I’m feeling kind of crappy. My birthday is soon so that’s cool. The Cubs are in the World Series so there have been a lot of treats brought into work and a bit of wine too. Then Halloween is Monday too, so there’s candy all over my house. I haven’t had any! I went to a Hocus Pocus party and my friend made smores books. They are graham crackers with fluff in the middle on a stick and melt chocolate over it so it’s like a chocolate square popsicle. I had a bite but it was very sweet. Overall, I’m not thrilled about only 10.6lbs this month. I am seeing a new nutritionist at a totally different office soon so hopefully she will help me lose more faster!

16 Week Post-Op VSG Update - NASHVILLE BABY

This is my 16 week post op update. I was in Nashville this past weekend. I ate a bunch of crap I shouldn’t have. On Thursday, we went to Rippy’s and I had a grilled chicken wrap and a few curly fries (to DIE for curly fries). Friday at Puckett’s, I had some eggs with cheese, ham, insides of fried chicken for breakfast. For lunch at a Blues bar in Printer’s Alley, we had fried pickles. I don’t remember what was for dinner. Saturday, we went to Another Broken Egg for breakfast and I had some country potatoes with an egg, feta, mushroom, and bacon scrambler (prob a million calories). For dinner we went to Margaritaville and I had a few of my husband’s nachos and then ¼ of a chicken and cheese quesadilla. Oh, and every evening I drank my body weight in vodka lemonades. Typing it out, doesn't sound too horrible, but it was pretty bad. I felt full every day and tried to keep doing because it was so good. 


Overall,I gained a pound this weekend. I’m not okay with it. I also anticipate not losing much this week because I will be laying on the couch after work because I’m sick. I might have strep, but I don’t think so. So total, i'm down 54.2 pounds.
