1 month post-op

Today marks 4 weeks since my surgery. It seems both longer and shorter.

I have lots to celebrate. The most important thing: this afternoon my primary care doctor took me off high-blood-pressure medication. I'm so excited! 

In terms of scale progress, I've lost 18.6 pounds the past 4 weeks, for a total of about 35. I've worked hard before at different weight-loss attempts (although never this hard), without results, and I was worried surgery would be the same. I'm relieved and grateful that my hard work is getting results.

What else? I'm exhausted. I worked more than a full day because it didn't make sense to go home between work and my doctor appointment. The alarms at work worked perfectly, though, and I'm on track for the day. I foresee an early-to-bed night — but a cheerful one.
