I haven't done a great job tracking my meals, but I HAVE done a pretty good job being careful what I've eaten. We've been doing well the past week and a half. I'm already down 7lbs since just before my surgery (not even two weeks ago). That first two pounds was definitely water weight, considering I didn't eat for 3 days straight in the hospital and then put on only a clear liquid diet for a day before my surgery.
All my eating restrictions have been lifted, and I'll admit, I took advantage of that yesterday. My husband took the two weeks of my recovery off, so yesterday was his last weekday at home (though technically two weeks in on Tuesday). We decided to spend the day out as a family. We went to the mall, ate crappy food at the food court, and took our tyke on those mobile animal cart things. Then we discovered a carnival we had no idea was in town, so the three of us even shared a funnel cake. I came home sore from being on my feet all day, but oh, so very happy.
All in all, it was a great day, and I'm extremely surprised at how much more energy I have had since having my gallbladder out. My blood pressure has been significantly lower, too, and it makes me wonder if this has been an ongoing issue.

losing 3.5 lb a week
29 May 2024
Pancreatitis, "mild" fatty liver, and one cholecystectomy later. Seems I need to get back on the wagon. Not to say I didn't need to earlier, but if I want to relieve some of the stressors on my body, I'm going to have to take my healthcare a bit more seriously.
For the next two weeks, I'm stuck on a diet of high protein, low (to no) fat, and limited sugar. Lots of veggies, fresh fruits, fish and chicken.
We're living on the kindness of community as I'm in recovery, because I am unable to cook and my husband just CAN'T. So, thankfully we have a group of people we can turn to who will help with meals until I'm able to stand for increments longer than 10 minutes. That said, I may as well meal plan for the period of time after my recovery time is over. I have to get into that happen again. For the both of us.
My husband is pre-diabetic, to the point of just narrowly missing the mark. We need to get his blood sugar down and to a healthy weight again. Especially considering his dad died pancreatic cancer due to his diabetes. All in all, both of our health issues are pushing us to stop procrastinating with the exercise and healthy eating.
Whoever said "when you're an adult you can live however you want" lied. Life is rude.

losing 0.1 lb a week
23 March 2023
6 years, 1 divorce, 45lbs weight loss, 1 remarriage, 1 baby, and 50lbs weight gain later, I'm back. (Seems I lost some followers in that time - not unexpected)
We joined the local YMCA because they have a really good household rate and a day care. Our objective is to go twice a week until we've built a habit, and then slowly integrate more visits into our schedule. Yesterday we went swimming and tomorrow we will be going back for individual classes. Spin class for me.
Naw-Rúz was on Tuesday and there was a ton of food left over from the celebration that hubster insisted we bring home so as to not waste it. As such, meal planning has been waylaid until it's all gone.
I've already lost 8lbs since March 1st, but hadn't thought to weigh-in here. I think I can be down by pre-baby weight by mid summer if I'm focused. I'll have to lose about 3lbs a week to get there by the first of July, which I think is possible.
Anyway, here's my new family. <3

Carbondale, Illinois was the spot to see the eclipse for the longest time. That's great and all, but by only being 3 hours away, and getting off of work at 7pm that meant I got stuck in traffic for HOURS. It was ridiculous. The 40 miles in between the city I work and my hometown there were three accidents. How? We were literally only going 5-10 miles an hour, and only when were weren't stopped!! By the time I got into town (traffic lined all the way through our 4,600 population town), I was so frustrated and angry I needed something bad.
So, to Hardee's I went. I was reading the menu trying to decide what I wanted, and I just felt terrible. So terrible. Everything was so high in calories and I didn't want to have something THAT bad. But, I made the decision to go walking after I ate, and Chuck agreed to come along. So, I (h)ate my feelings. Apparently, that was exactly what I needed. It felt so good, and it gave me energy, surprisingly. We walked for an hour, then went home.
Overall, I officially didn't get home until 11pm.. but as my 2 year old niece says, "Sometimes bad things happen."
