Three weeks from today and I am having surgery again! I can't wait to see the final outcome, although i am told it may take a few months for the swelling to go down and I can really see what it looks like.
This past weekend was our 10 mile walk. Long story short it took me an extra hour and half due to the sand being much softer and i couldn't get my footing and getting lost. UGH. Sometimes I am such an idiot.
However I completed it, and that's all that matters. I guess. Although I am still very angry at myself and part of me wishes I could do it again this weekend.
That said, i found it very interesting that I had very little for breakfast, a small pumpkin breakfast bar that one of the girls made, a bananna and a few pieces of watermelon and nothing during the walk. By the time I returned it was almost four, i immediately took a shower and laid on the bed for a bit. Eventually, i went upstairs and "lunch" was basically gone. I have to say, pre surgery I would have been famished. Now, even after all day, I was hungry, but honestly, had I not known I HAD to eat and get in some protein, I could have just gone to bed.
Just shows that I still experience head hunger more than physical hunger. Still even going to dinner, I couldn't finish my meal. I do so love my sleeve.
I'm hoping this removal skin will allow me the chance to up my workout intensity and get the rest of the weight off and get to goal.
In the meantime, I have been invited down to a friend's boat on the Chesapeake for the weekend. I am very excited about the invitation and I can't wait for Saturday to arrive.
Friday I am having a pre-rapture aint gonna happen lunch and dinner. So, it should be a fun and interesting weekend.
On a side note, while i never had "high" sugar, i am down to 86! lowest ever!!!!!
