Weigh in (home scale): 223lb. By now I have realized that there is a significant discrepancy between my home scale and the scale at my surgeon's office. The surgeon's office scale weighs lighter. So I am going to stick with my home scale from here on out, because I can access it whenever I want, not just on appointment days!
But bigger news than the weight, is a few recent NSV's (non-scale victories) that I will share. First of all, I went shoe shopping the other day and found it much easier to bend down to try on shoes (without getting out of breath!) Also, in my car, it is easier to lean down and pull the gas cap door or the trunk lever. Lastly, today I put on some pants and they were almost too big to wear! That was really shocking because it seems like not that long ago they were snug.
On to what I've been eating. I've been having mostly chicken and tuna salad, cottage cheese, refried beans, regular beans, some cheese, peanut butter, milk, a few soft green veggies, banana, applesauce. I am fully off the protein shakes but occasionally I will have some protein pudding or a protein hot drink. Tonight I tried some baked tilapia but I wasn't that hungry so I only had a teeny bit. Truth be told, I actually snacked on some roasted potatoes that I had made while I was waiting on the fish to be done and got full on those :( FAIL!
I absolutely can not WAIT to get out of the 220's. Though honestly, I won't really feel like I'm "on my way" until I'm out of the 200's. But thats just my hang up.
