Surgeon Testimonial

Daniel E. Swartz
Dr. Swartz knows what he is doing. I would rate him very high on his professional manner and his skill. He strongly emphasizes after care. I feel he and Dr. Felix have an excellent progam to offer. rnrn

Well yesterday I finally made my un-pasta lasagna. It was really good. You use zucchini instead of noodles. When I was cooking the meat sauce I tasted it and thought I am not going to like this, but when it was all put together and cooked it was really good. I will make it again. If anyone wants the recipe PM me and I will send it to you. There are other things in the cook book I am going to try.

Exercise
on May 15, 2010 1:14 pm
  I have started walking again. I don't know why, but I really have a hard time getting my head around the fact that exercise has to be a regular part of my life. As Gus posted not to long ago it is a part of the deal with our doctors. I can just get so lazy! Well now I have a friend who wants to walk 3 days a week with me. She had a stint put in 2 weeks ago and need to walk as well. I think one of our other friends is going to walk with us too. It is so much more fun with someone else. I do get tired of talking to myself! LOL I think I can walk by myself a couple of days a week though. I need to get out my DVD Walkman and put Jimmy Buffet in. He makes me laugh. I do feel better when I walk. I also know that is the way to keep the weight off. Now I just have to get my head around it!

Last night I printed a copy of one of my before pictures. I have seen this picture before and I did not realize how big I really was. I looked at it again tonight and once again I have to say I just did not realize how big I was again. I printed out a 4X6 size and another 4X6 of one of the pictures that I posted on my last blog. I  put them in a 2 picture side by side frame. Even though I did not lose half of my beginning weight I still look like I have lost another person. I am so happy I had the RNY. I would recommend it to anyone. This has been an amazing journey, and just think it will be one that I am on the rest of my life.

I am going to put the frame on top of my piano behind all of my other pictures so I can look at it whenever I need to be reminded of where I came from and to not go back there.
