And The Weight Is Dropping…
I cannot believe that I am down to 230 pounds! I cannot remember the last time I weighed this much! I am officially less than I was when Shawn & I got married! I am happier than happy…when it comes to that aspect of things.
I’m still not feeling 100% everywhere else though. I swear you’d think I’m pregnant with the “morning sickness” that I am suffering from…but that’s next to impossible with the oven being gone, but every morning…I’m so sick feeling. I’ve been having problems getting all my fluids in, but I’m trying…hard! And then getting my proteins in…yeah, right! So I’m mainly focused on my fluids right now…so I do not get dehydrated. I also need to start walking to get myself some more energy. Walking outside in this weather is almost impossible…so Shawn’s getting the treadmill set up for me.
Still not feeling that this was all worth it…but have to remember it’s still early, I’m not even 6 weeks out yet. It’s just depressing when you want to feel normal again…and you don’t. There are so many positive things, and I know I need to focus on those more…like I’m down a jean size, bra size, and shirts that were tight on me before surgery are now fitting me! So my biggest goal is to be positive, and focus on the positive, and stop dwelling on the negative and get my butt moving…literally!
…until we blog again…

Congrats on the weightloss!
I’m sure you’ll be feeling back to your old self soon. It’s just going to take your body a little time to recover from the shock of surgery.

You’re looking good and I know when clothes start fitting properly, it sure feels good! I know that makes you smile and feel good despite the medical hurdles right now. I’ll be glad when your physical well-being matches your purtiness!!
Hugs

Jana, I can sortof relate to the not feeling good part. After my heart surgery in November, I honestly was misconceived to think I would all of a sudden feel better and my heart wouldn’t give me problems. But the reality was, is that the doctor said it could take months. That the healing process is just that. There are so many days I feel awful and my heart wants to act up. I think we both need to look at the big picture taking one day at a time. You are already seeing the benefits and as for me, I am already on 1/2 the medicine I was on. I’m still not well, but my FAITH is strong. Hang in there gal!

Hi Jana! I’m sorry I haven’t stopped by to check on you for a while but it seems you’re recovering nicely. Your spirits are good and I’m glad. Hang in there my bloggy friend. It’ll just keep getting better and better from here.
