    Topic: RE: Roll call!! How are all the Junies doing??
    My weight loss is weird. I am not going to complain though because going down is a whole lot better than going up!.

    Topic: RE: How much weight have you lost?
    My all time high I have lost 56 pounds.
    From day of surgery 42 pounds.
    For whatever reason Aug was only 9 pounds and I stalled a few times as I got close to 200. Now things are speeding up

    Topic: RE: 1 week has passed
    I know it sound like the same thing everyone says but I compare it to situps. Like 100+ and you feel the muscle pain. It is not unbearable. Your throat may also be sore (it took about 2 days for that to go away). Drinking too much too fast feels like a big air buble going down. It is uncomfortable. So practice taking tiny sips of water.

    Have chapstick because the lips get so dry.

    Good news pre-ops! This WLS has been the best thing I have ever done for myself.

    I had an uneventful surgery no problems with meds or water intake. The hospital staff was shaky though. Some nurses were more on top of things than others so my goal was to get out of there a.s.a.p!

    I came home with a drain that I hated. It got removed on Weds and for "me" that **** hurt! I should've been numbed beforehand.

    I am home relaxing and on purred food today. Last night I went out to outback w hubby and I had french onion soup. I did not eat the croutons, I tasted the cheese (also had gb removed) and minutes later I had to make a run for the restroom (sorry but I am being honest here). I was able to nibble on his mashed potatoes! Yum!

    I am down 13 pounds in one week. I am amazed! Even On previous diets I did not accomplish this!

    I love my sleeve!

    I do not have to do a diet but I am going to do liquids for breakfast/lunch and a small dinner so I can drop 10 pounds.
