Phooey

I weighed in today. I lost 500/1000 of a pound. Boo... I lost 1/2 of pound this week. That was just a fancy was of writing it. Guess it's my week for a plateau. I have added a few new things to my diet the past 2 weeks. But still I can only eat 8-10 bites and I feel full. Still eating lots of cottage cheese @ least sometime through out the day. I did eat some ham this week. Hmm what else new did I eat this week. I had one strawberry with chocolate on it. A co worker made chocolate covered strawberry's this week for us for Easter. Just had one though. Anyway, slow week this week for weight loss and I am not happy about it. But I knew I would have plateau weeks.

Derrel bought me some zinc for hair loss. I will start taking it today.

I can see some changes in my body. My legs look a bit smaller. I feel a bit lighter on my feet. But I still have my days when I think this won't work for me either. I would be lying if I said it never crossed my mind. How can it not work. The amount of food I am taking in is small. I still do feel hunger pangs, as some people do not after surgery. The amount of food that fills me is small and not much at all. That is still amazing to me! But yes, I still feel once in awhile I will be the one person that will fail, it does cross my mind every once in awhile.

Just trying to be honest...

Just remind yourself failur is not an option. Things take time. It is disappointing to get on that scale and not be down 5-6lbs. Someone told me that adding protein gets things reved up again. I'm not a big protein person so I haven't tried it. Just remember...Patience!! Everyday is a new commitment. I say that to myself every morning when I get up.
