Very slowly, with lots of bumps along the way, I have managed to drop a few pounds overall.

Week 31 10/10/09 – 226 lbs (-1)
Week 32 10/17/09 – 225 lbs (-1 lbs)
Week 33 10/24/09 – 223.5 lbs (-1.5)

At one point last week on Thursday I weighed in at 220 lbs – I was delighted but only briefly. As of the official weighin Saturday (10/24/09) I had gained back 3.5. lbs, and as of today I have gained back another 2.5 lbs, weighing in at 226. I have no idea why – the only difference this week is that I’ve been super hungry (now that I’m off the antibiotics I had to take) so I have been eating about 5 to 10 celery sticks in addition to my 3 tiny meals.

I am hoping that by the time the next official weighin rolls around next Saturday that I will manage to drop the additional weight.

Daily calories have been between 600 and 750. Even with the gastric bypass surgery I can’t seem to get the calories much lower. A typical day is: hard boiled egg; 4 oz low fat cottage cheese with a cucumber or small amount of cherry tomatoes; small piece of protein and 1/2 cup green veggie. As needed to keep hunger under control – a pickle (10 calories) or a few sticks of celery (20 to 30 calories)

As usual, I’m taking it one day at time and eating only for nutrition purposes – nothing fancy and as simple and plain as possible.
