Hi everyone -- I'm now 2 months out from surgery and just in the past week have had my first two "wow!" moments. The first happened one night last week when I was sitting watching some TV...I was scratching my neck and felt this hard bump under the skin, and thought "what the hell??", and then I realized it was my collar bone! I haven't felt a collar bone since I can't remember when!
My other wow is that I've achieved my first real milestone, which was to get back to my college graduation weight. I weighed 337 at the time of graduation in 1989, and I hit that weight last weekend (and have actually lost two pounds since then).
I've been a little depressed lately because my weight loss has slowed to a crawl -- I'm now only losing about two pounds a week, which is much less than I had hoped. I posted in another thread that I think the problem is that I'm not eating enough. But, every time I come here and read about other people's positive experiences and read your supportive comments to each other, it makes me remember the positives -- yeah, my weight loss has slowed, but I've still lost 53 pounds in the past few months, and once I'm fully recovered from surgery, I'll feel the positive impact of that in my back, knees, feet, etc. You all are an inspiration to me, so THANKS FOR BEING HERE!
