2 Month Update

Hey Friends!


Thanks for your support. I am doing great. I have lost 33 pounds plus 12 pounds pre- op so that is a total of 45 pounds. I have been walking/ jogging almost everyday. I feel great! People who don't know that I had the surgery are just starting to notice at work.
I am averaging about 2 1/2 lbs. a week. While I would like it to be faster on one hand, I feel like if I lose it at this pace my hair may not fall out as much. Also, maybe my skin will not sag as much. I am grateful that I haven't hit a plateau yet. I am about 6 lbs away from onederland( weird word but don't know what else it call it.
I eat everything. I haven't had any problems. It is definitely a new way of eating though. I can't believe it has been 2 months already. I obviously focus on protein first but I don't know how many carbs I should eat per day.
I feel like I should eat more fruit and vegetables but fruit has a lot of carbs. Do you guys worry about carbs? How many do you eat per day?
Overall, this has been a great experience. I am finally losing the weight and I am so excited about it. I apologize for not posting sooner and I will try to post more often.
Thanks for asking about me tz!
