Stabilization: Day 3

It’s going fine! Again, it’s a stress on the body--all these transitions. On Tuesday (day 2), my weight jumped 2#. I was not too happy about that, though I know it’s expected and normal (It’s why they don’t have you count the losses incurred after the last injection.). After last session’s debacle (where the weight gain never did stop!), I was nervous. But today, no weight gain at all! So I’m still below my LIW (Last Injection Weight). I know it’s too early to declare victory, but I’m doing it for today.

Still hungry all the time. Lame. I think that’s just me and my blood sugar; if I don’t have healthy snacks between meals, I may as well lie down on the floor and refuse to get up. I don’t eat after dinner, though. I’m eating very carefully, trying to eat enough, but not too much (I guess we all do that, huh?).

I’m already doing well with the adjusting of meals (We’ve had enough practice at it over the years.). For example, they have tacos, I have taco salad. It’s all good. Food and lotion are still novel treats for me. It’s too soon for me to whine that I can’t have carbs. That will come later.
