I am not a very good blogger, and things have been so busy!
Let me do a quick overview of the last two weeks
Week 2 started about the same as the couple days before. I was still pretty swollen and I went to see the doctor again. The doctor was liking the way that I was looking and he FINALLY loosened me up a tiny bit. I still couldn't get anything that was very thick down but it was nice not to feel so clenched! He also cleared me to go back to work, but told me no face trauma. (I work with horses and children)
I went back to work the following week and it was a challenge! My job is not one that you sit down often. I was up and around, but felt pretty useless as I still couldn't lift things that were very heavy. By the end of the week not only was I exhausted, but I was more swollen!
The doctor told me to take it easy and let me take my bands off for a couple of hours each day.
Sorry this is a short update, but things have been so crazy that I couldn't do a day by day.
I am not near as hungry anymore. I bottomed out after losing 10 pounds and I am not losing any more than that. I am ready to eat more food, but I don't crave like I used to. I am just in "waiting" now. =]
