Yippee - another big loss again today! If I can maintain this weight until Monday's official weigh-in, I'll be able to cash in my next 1/2 stone reward!! The swelling has gone down even more today, so I guess it's partially due to that - I just hope this isn't some kind of post-surgery fluke, are my muscles wasting away already?? Or maybe those bags were bigger than I'd realised, LOL!
Yesterday was tough - the first day on my own since the surgery, and a low calorie day to boot - less than 1,200 cals, youch. However, I did get through it, by spending lots of time on Fatsecret, carefully rationing out my meals, drinks and snacks over the day, and by drinking gallons of water!
I'm really missing exercising. Do you know, I even sat and flicked through an exercise DVD yesterday! It was a new rental that had just arrived, so there is some excuse, but I did chuckle to myself at how times had changed, in that I was actually watching Davina McCall doing lunges and wishing that I could be joining in!
Well, the stitches are coming out this afternoon, thank goodness. My eyes are itching like mad at the moment! Hope it's not too painful - I've heard this can be the worst bit. I've had no pain at all so far, and I'm quite happy to keep it that way if possible. I'll be pre-arming myself with a couple of painkillers, just in case!
Happy Wednesday from a lovely, sunny Southampton!
