Monday Monday
| This week I am only down 0.2 pounds, but its still something right? I have only lost 5 pounds in the last month, but everyone says its a normal part of the process. Normal or not, its frustrating! I am just trying to get through this plateau and hopefully see some more movement in the downward direction of my scale and clothing sizes! I am very happy to be wearing clothes from “normal” stores though!
Here is a picture taken at work a few days ago. It’s the first picture where I can really see a difference. I also didn’t have to open photoshop & crop my whole body off! |

Wow Mary,
I read your blog from Monday. You look great! You have come so far in the last five months, don’t get discouraged! Tomorrow is 3 weeks since my RNY surgery. I only hope I can be as successful as you have been at the five month mark. I read all of your blogs and have taken a great deal of advice. Went to Trader Joes to buy the turkey meatballs and greek yogurt, bought the blender cup from GNC, and also some of the protein drinks you recommended. Looking forward to trying all of them now. Thanks for doing all the research and being the guinea pig for the rest of us! Keep up the awesome work!

Look at that pretty lady!! Great picture, and you are not dressed in black! lol
It’s easy to get discouraged, but hang in there! You may want to take your measurements if you find the scales aren’t moving and discouragement really settles in. The scales don’t tell all the story, but the tape measure usually decreases its numbers! Take care.
