Why does it always sound soooo much better using the US metric system?! But then again - it also bites you in the ass when you think of how much you used to weigh - in my case 350 lbs vs. 160 kg - I know which one I prefer! Hahaha..
Like the title of the post indicates, it's now been six weeks since my gastric bypass surgery. Time flies, I tell ya! I can hardly recall the beginning of it all - or let me rephrase that - I don't think about that part much any longer.
I'm very much focused on getting used to this new life with work, exercise and a daily routine. I haven't had the luxury of a so-called "epiphany" yet - however, this past week has shown me that it is possible to live life controlling food - as opposed to being controlled by food.
There's a HUGE difference for obese people - being obese and controlled by food is in strong relation to our feelings. We eat more and more often with our feelings than the average person. It being boredom, sadness, happiness etc. - in Denmark we have this thing called "hygge" - the closest translation is "cozy". You rarely find a social gathering of Danes without something to eat/drink around them.. ;o) I know this is (perhaps) pushing the button, but it's true..!!
Anyhoo - like I said earlier this week - I'm back to work and it was nice to touch base again. Having a reason to get up in the morning is (always) a pleasure... It is..! ;o) And 2011 is fresh and new and just ready for us to take on life.
This week I reached my first goal - have a look in the top-right corner!
Kæmpe TIL LYKKE med dit første delmål! Fantastisk start på 2011, som jeg har døbt "Sveskens år" - ahaha...

P.S.: Hmmm, måske man skal bruge kilo going up og US pounds going down. ;o)
@FrSlagelse: Jeg forstår din tankegang - og kan kun tilføje at der er "fordele" og "bagdele" ved begge.. hahaha..
