Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes (Update 4)

I have another collage photo to post.  I realized that I like these monthly look backs on how I am changing and improving my life since the surgery.


Things have been a bit slow going, lots of busy stuff for summer so the gym hasn't been a priority as much as it should.  I was able to do 25 push ups in a minute and 48 squats in a minute.  My mile time digressed a bit but I am working to get back in the swing of things.

I have lost 103.2 lbs since my surgery in December for a total of 130.2 since September.  I keep adding clothes to the donate basket and that is a huge win.  Though, I am running low on closet stock of pants.  I went and bought a size 18 and 16 jeans in prep for the next sizes.  The 18's I can get on and button but it's really not flattering right now.

Other than that things are good.  I have been thinking protein first and my hair is rebounding nicely.  Less is coming out when I wash or brush it.  Let me tell you that was a relief.

Sugar and I are not getting along and I have been having pain for eating to much of it.  Sugar and carbs are also causing me to get a bit dizzy and my blood sugar spikes.  Lovely but manageable.

All in all I feel great, my energy is amazing and I am really happy with my progress so far.

  1. Ah! you are looking great! Seriously call if you have any questions! I know Brad still struggles sometimes, and we really don't eat carbs or even keep them in the house. It helps me too! Haha. You are working out way more than I am. Let me know if you need any pants too.. I'm slowly getting back into a size 16 so I have some size 18s if you need them!
