3 Months Surgi-versary

It's been a while. I just wanted to provide a brief update. I'm 3 months out today. I've lost 59.2 pounds. I still have difficulty getting in my supplements and protein in each day. Frankly food doesn't excite me. This bothered me at first but not now.

I'm trying my best not to go bald. LOL My hair is thinning and it "bums me out" because I've always had thick hair. I keep reminding myself that it's temporary and that it will grow back. I also decided to let my relaxer grow out which will make a big difference. I'm not sure if I can do this going into summertime, but I am going to try.

Life is different for me. I still don't have the energy to exercise like I should. I'm hoping to be a member of the century club by the end of March.

I'm glad Spring is on the way, I think I will get out more and enjoy the nice weather. I use to wear 3W in shirts or size 22W in pants. I now wear 16W in pants...so, I only have 2 pairs of pants to wear right now, but frankly it doesn't bother me at all.

I'm looking forward to attending support group again. January and February meetings didn't work out for me, but I really want to go.

So my goals this month are as follows:
1. consistent exercise
2. increase protein intake
3. attend support group meeting and
4. become a member of the Century Club.

I realize that I have more control over the first 3 items than I do over the last one. I'll definitely keep you posted. I hope everyone is doing well!
