I KNOW I am failing at keeping this up to date but I want to at least give it a good honest effort!
Another month down in Toronto... project is in crunch time. We are expecting a "go live" for Aug 10... I can't see it happening. Systems integration is still just not there. 3 weeks to figure that out.... not to mention training.
Anyway, on to my weight. While I've been in TO I've gained a few pounds and I'm totally not happy about it. I know that is from (very) long hours, eating bad/not at all and little to no movement.
I'm making strides to change at least some of the things I can.
I signed up for boot camp every Saturday morning. That is NOT enough. I'm trying to get myself out and walking several times a week at least so I can burn calories.
In addition I need to get back to basics. Too many late night fatty/high calorie foods are working their way into my diet when they shouldn't be so I'm cutting back on eating late, eating out and eating crap :) I never feel good when I have carbs so this SHOULD be an easier transition for me.
Protein first!!
Onward and downward!
My journey through the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy surgery, my challenges and all the thoughts that spill out...
About VSG
Sleeve Gastrectomy is a surgical weight loss tool in which the stomach is reduced to about 25% of its original size, by surgical removal of a large portion of the stomach, following the major curve. The open edges are then attached together (often with surgical staples, glue and possibly cauterization) to form a sleeve or tube with a banana shape. The procedure permanently reduces the size of the stomach and is performed laparoscopically and is not reversible.
