Week 7 - wow already

It has gone quite fast really however I am feeling like I am not getting in enough food and protein and that has slowed down my weight loss.  Since surgery I have lost 14 kg.  That is an average of 2kg a week so not too shabby.

After seeing other peoples scars I have come to the conclusion that I am very lucky and am going to share the lovely work of my surgeon, Dr Ravi Rao.

You can only just make out the four small marks, I am so happy with that.  My large scar is within my belly button so if I was every going to wear a bikini (ha ha) it wouldn't be too much of a drama.

Food:-
Like I said I am struggling to get all of it in.  I have a half pack of minute porridge every morning, on weekends I have a poached egg courtesy of hubby and his girls (chooks).  For lunch I have a cup of soup or left over from dinner the night before.  Dinner I just have a little of what the family is having. I avoid the rice, pasta and potato were possible. PROTEIN FIRST.

I try and have  a shake a day but have to admit to not doing that for a few days.  My weight loss slows when I am not getting in the protein.  So does my energy levels. Back to doing the right thing by my body today.

Here is a little shot my little boy took of me at six weeks.  He thinks it's funny to make me look small.

I am now wearing size 20 and 18 jeans after over five years in 24's and the odd 22.

Hope your journey's are going well!  Talk soon.
