Some new changes

So I had gastric band surgery last week. Its been 9 days and so far I've lost 10 pounds. If I stick to the plan I will lose 90 pounds in 6 to 8 months. This is life changing for me and I am very excited. Maybe my kids wont remember the obese me. Maybe next year when Sean go on our first honeymoon I can look decent in a bathing suit. I have stuck to the plan hard core so far and I plan to do so.

I can no longer eat for comfort. It is going to be hard for me. I am going to try to replace it with journaling and exercise. Maybe I will take up guitar.

Also the inflammation and acne on my face has completely cleared up. My twin is probably right. We are allergic/sensitive to wheat and me to sugar. Being on liquids only for a week will do a lot for you. But man it was hard. This week I can eat soft foods. Yesterday I had half an avocado and 1/2 a cup of beans all day. I am going to join my fitness pal again so I can log all my food. And exercise. 

I have had so much going on lately I can't wait to settle into my new life. Oh and Sean is starting a new job for a school district in our area so he is going to have fridays off til school starts and 28 days off during the year.

All things to work towards and look forward to.
