Lose a Marathon

Yes yes, I'm in. My first challenge that I've accepted. I'm very excited to see how this goes for me. Starting at 297.2..

Stricture Fun

I had my first endoscopy yesterday. They didn't find an ulcer but did find that I had a stricture, so they popped it back open for me. I found throwing up last night to have a much greater volume as a result. That was some dinner last night. When I got home from the Dr. about 2 o'clock I ate well. I had a good amount too. No problems at all. Then for dinner I had a spring roll. That's it, one leftover spring roll and I spent the next 4 hours throwing up about every 15 minutes. I think the regurg was pulling from my toes, I was heaving so hard. It was a very unpleasant evening.

Hopefully this solves some of the pain that I was having when eating.

I'm not sure how I'm doing on the scale front. Tuesday I saw a drop of about a half a pound which put me at my lowest since surgery, so I was stoked about that. I've been trying to stay off the scale since my stall was slowly driving me insane.

Hope everyone is having a great week. I'm looking forward to the weekend.

Following Directions

I did almost everything that I'm supposed to be doing (water, vitamins, protein, exercise) yesterday and guess what....today the scale hit the lowest mark since surgery. 297.2 - I'll take it. Maybe there is something to the Dr's advice afterall. Stay tuned...
