3 Week Update

So, I am three weeks in and I lost a little more weight!  I'm excited that I am loosing still!! It is a little surreal mostly because when I get on the scale I am so surprised at the number and how "easy" it seems because I'm rarely ever starving hungry, when I am hungry I will eat until I am satisfied and then stop.  In the past if that is what I did I wouldn't loose ANYTHING in fact I would normally gain weight.  So that is why it seems "easy" but then I remember all the pain I am in and the the serious pain I was in just three weeks ago and the foods that I can't eat but want to, even the healthy stuff like chef salad or raw fruits and veggies, and I am reminded of how "easy" it isn't and probably never will be.  Though my surgery was 3 weeks ago unlike a csection or most other surgeries the effects from this, both good and bad, will always effect my daily life.  Now this is something that I thought of before hand and I understood and grasped that; but I don't think anyone can fully understand the magnitude of it until they are in it. 

My incisions are healing great, the pain overall is better but I seem to have this pain in my mid to lower abdomen on the left side that comes and goes.  I finally called the doctor's nurse today because I was told that I could get some pain like that but this pain was just staying around and not going away.  The nurse said that the pain may be from constipation as well as the deep stitches that they did.  That darn deep stitch will be the death of me I swear lol.  I am happy to say that my daily reflux issues seem to be GONE!!  I have had acid reflux, that was pretty severe, since I was about 18.  They found I had a hiatal hernia and fixed it so no more reflux!!  I was having a lot after surgery but I think that was more from the healing and swelling then anything else. 

So, Last weeks number, if I am remembering right was 228.4 and this weeks number is:

That is a 1.4lb loss this week, If I'm doing my math right!!!
