Finally made it onto the scales and have put on a lb! Don't think that this is actually fat cos have found out that my new hip weighs about 11 lbs, but of course have no idea what my discarded piece of femur weighed
still have a lot of swelling around my incision some of which is supposedly water.....
Actually feel like I have lost a few lbs as when I put on newly washed trackies this morning, size 12, they felt very loose. My MIL came into the bathroom to help me dry my lower leg and feet this morning and commented, "OMG there's nothing left of you!" I didn't quite know how to take that, I was just wearing a towel around my waist and even I can see that my top half is pretty small but I'm not exactly thin!
As I said in another thread, I have to concentrate on my iron deficiency in order to get my blood pressure back up (don't want to faint again) but I do intend to do ww when I can concentrate on reading the paperwork. OH and I had a terrible row last night about my eating as he doesn't think that I should lose any more but my surgeon says that another stone will be even better for my hips, I can't seem to win. Can't understand my OH as he has always preferred me slim, I'm missing something somewhere but can't work out what?!
The best thing about eating again is undoubtedly fruit!
