Let's start with the good news shall we?  This morning I clambered on the scales and in 7 weeks I've lost 19.7kgs and since surgery 3 weeks ago, I've lost 10.7kgs.  Round of applause please, and thank you.  I am officially the weight I was when we left Australia to travel home for our wedding in April last year,  *insert chuffed as look*  These numbers have been such a huge goal for me and to get here so soon, it's pretty overwhelming.  This is the lightest I've weighed in oh, say, 13 years and I'm pretty fucking stoked with myself.  Any weight loss from here on in will blow my mind.  Bring on the next goal ...

I have been struggling with my food tho.  I've been on baby food consistency since Wednesday last week and only last nite I cooked something I liked and it didn't make me feel wrong afterwards.  Chicken, mushroom and broccoli with Bearnaise sauce YUM!!  I only had about 2 tablespoons worth and I felt full and satisfied.  Guess what I'm having for dinner tonight?

Ok so I know you've been waiting for the bodily function part, so here goes.  With so little food going in, pooing is a 3 or 4 day event.  And when it does happen I get major stomach cramps and I spew.  I have no idea why but it's quite distressing because it fucking hurts.  Not the spew part but the gut pain part.  You know when you get the shits and your stomach goes in knots and you spend 30 minutes on the toilet just waiting for the next attack?  Well that's what it's like.  I dread having to do a poo!!  Something for my surgeon to answer at my follow up appt on Wednesday.  He'd better have an answer and not, 'this phase will pass, it'll get better'.

Yeah so Wednesday is my follow up appt with my surgeon.  I'm looking forward to getting on his scales and saying, 'Good job Doc, you're worth every cent, now sort my shit out.  Literally'.
