It's hard to believe its been a month!! I feel so blessed to feel so much better than I did just one month ago!! I finally went back to work this week..which I was dreading terribly and after Monday I couldn't believe that I had gone back (I was in pain) but by Friday I felt better and it was so good to see my sweet, sweet kiddos again!!
I am also proud to say that I finally broke through my 3 week stall!! I had heard so much about that stall from video blogs and from obesity.com I honestly just thought those people were not following the rules..but the 3 week stall is a real thing! Apparently your body is losing so much weight so fast that by the 3rd week ..it says...hold up, wait a minute! I am just happy that it finally passed!! As of this morning I am finally under 330! I almost cried and I immediately gave praises to my God because it has been its strength and mercy that has carried me this whole way! My total weight loss so far has been
-28lbs so if you are doing the math in your head that means..i started out 2 weeks before my surgery weighing 357. So 1 month down..almost 30 lbs lost..it feels awesome!! My first goal was to get under 330...and my second goal is to weigh under 300!! This is going to be such a long journey but I know that all things are possible through Jesus Christ! Do I use that same verse in all my blogs? I feel as though I do..but you know what??? That's ok..because its to true not to share!!
ok..so last tuesday..when I got dressed at Briana's I put this shirt on..and I was pleasantly surprised..that it fit so loosely so I had to take a picture!
please excuse my bed head..funny that I didn't even think about fixing my hair before I took this picture!!! lol!!!
What have I been eating?? Well..not very much at one time..but I've been eating about 3 meals a day! Some days I need a snack to help get all my protein in! It's hard to get all of the protein in some days...so my staples are:
--protein shakes
--lots of chicken
--cheese
--eggs
--beef jerky nuggets
--deli meat
--refried beans
--shrimp
I also have eat fish, tuna, edemame (there is 11 grams of protein in 1/4 cup..that my new happy find!), oh and turkey sausage!!
I meant to say mention the last blog...that if you are reading this considering surgery or just have questions..i would be glad to answer anything you want to know! Knowledge is power!! I also have pictures of my incisions if you want to see..i just didn't want to offend anyone by putting them up on here!! My email address is
sarlharrison@hotmail.com
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers!!!
