15 inches off my waist!

I’m down 84 lbs and a total of 15 inches off my waist!!!! The scale is definitely going down much slower, but I seem to be averaging about 5 lbs per month – so not bad. But obviously the inches are still coming off. I’m making sure to take my vitamins daily. I’m taking one chewable multivitamin daily and two Hair Skin and Nails supplements and two Calcium Citrates daily. My hair loss seems to have stopped since I increased my supplements. I thought I was going to go bald there for a while, but new hair is coming in. I do make sure I get in my protein, but it’s not always easy. So I’m going to get some Isopure protein supplements today and start on those, in addition to my protein bars. Some days I just don’t feel like eating much, so those are low protein days and that’s not good. Ironically, I was reading on another WLS board that someone noticed a connection between low protein intake and depression. Mmmm?? I don’t really feel depressed, but protein is brain food, so it makes sense that low protein intake might affect mood and energy too. So I’m going to increase my overall protein intake, as Dr. Richardson’s office said it would not hurt me to do so.

Well, that’s my update for this time. At this pace of 5 lbs per month, I’ll make my goal weight by my 1 year anniversary! Only 19 more lbs to go!
