Weekly update - 2/23

I haven't been posting any updates lately. Not that I have felt bad necessarily, since my last post, I lost like 9 more pounds. This last week though, I did not lose a single pound. I only worked out twice, and ate crap. So, yes, even I have a bad week sometimes. Staying in for a few adult beverages Saturday, certainly didn't help, but it was a fun weekend!
However, I think I determined why I felt like crap last week. My blood pressure was too low. The doc took me to a lower dosage, and my bp is still good. I am starting to get energy again. It was just so weird, not having energy, sleeping in. Otherwise, I am doing great. I worked out this evening, and am eating much better stuff this week.

2 months out

Two months post operation as of yesterday. I weighed in at 343 pounds. In two months I have lost 55 pounds. I am a little more than a quarter of the way to my goal. The weight loss has slowed somewhat. I am continuing to eat right, and work out most every day. I average a pound or two lost every week, and that is really encouraging. I have gotten rid of almost half of my clothes so far, and I have given most of them away. Today, I am wearing jeans 3 sizes smaller than I was 2 months ago, and shirts two sizes smaller. This is a fun ride.
