6 weeks post-op

ok so what's goin on with me 6 weeks post-op. I weighed in at 101.9kg this morning! First time seeing 101, even tho I'm at the high end of it, it's still exciting. I got a weight chart from losingitwithrebecca which is sooo helpful. I have goal weights mapped out for my entire journey and I've met my goal this week and last week. So hopefully it keeps going on track :)I've lost a total of 12kgs now which is yay yay for me :)

I have had a few "stuck" incidents. First was on some dry stir-fry my boyfriend made. It had brocolli and cashews and fried tofu...and I think if I had just stopped for a second instead of lumping another mouthful down on top of a stucky sort of mouthful, then I would've been ok. But I think it kinda piled up down there, and man oh man, was it painful. It's like SEVERE indigestion. A stabbing pain. Nasty! And I will admit the only way I could relieve it was to let some come back up. It wasn't really vomiting, I just leant over and chewed food came out, no stomach acid or anything. Kind weird. And then I had another issue with some corned beef, which was stupid because it was early morning, and it was way too dry for me to eat. That seems to be the main issue at the moment. Suacy soft food is easy to eat, even meat with a sauce I can manage. It's just dry stuff that's causing problems.

Everything else is going well. Excercise is not. I'm so buggered after work, and the prospect of cooking dinner afterwards almost always deters me from being active. I'm going to make a real effort on the weekends to walk the dogs and not just lay around and be a sloth. I think I'm meant to be going out tonight...which is a concern. I've already learnt that alcohol is bad news for weight loss....We'll just have to wait and see what happens...
