Tomorrow will make 3 weeks since i had my RNY!! As of today i have lost 16lbs and i feel
absolutely wonderful! I cant believe how easy this has been and that i have no problems
to speak of. I know i am lucky or blessed or all the above. The best part is that I don't feel like
I'm missing anything and I'm not deprived. I am very happy that I was able to have surgery and I hope my clothes start to fit a little looser soon...but since everything was tight to begin w/ i guess it may take a little while LOL
Hope everyone is doing well and stay motivated! I need to be more dedicated and accountable for my walking everyday..I have slacked this weekend. BAD GIRL ...I KNOW!!  I WILL TAKE MY SPANKING :0)
HUGS N KISSES

I cant believe it has already been two weeks. I actually don't feel like I had surgery...until i try to
eat that is..lol I'm still never hungry...never have the desire for anything so that makes this journey
a lot easier!! I just wish i had lost more already...i have only lost 12 lbs but i guess that is better than gaining 12 huh?? I guess i should be happy with any weight loss...but it makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong or its my fault that i haven't lost more.
I am back to both jobs this week so I don't have much spare time during the week again. Hope everyone is well and Thanks to so many who send me well wishes.
Hugs n kisses

I went to see my surgeon for my one week follow up today. I have lost 10 lbs and my incisions look absolutely beautiful! actually you wouldn't see them at all unless you knew to look for them. LOL
I think it is so amazing that i feel like my normal self. No aches or pains ..no nausea or any problem to speak of. EXCEPT THIS DAMN HEAD COLD!!  I cant believe i lost 10 lbs in a week..that has never happened before. I am very happy that i had the strength and determination to go thru with the surgery. 
I cant wait to look back a month or even six months from now!
Thank you all my OH friends that continue to send well wishes. You are the GREATEST!!!
BIG HUGS

Well today is the last day of clear liquids. And I have not been hungry at all. That is so strange to me LOL I just knew i would be starving or threaten every in the house to give me some of what ever they ate ..but nope!  Tomorrow i can have soup and i think it will be interesting to see how i handle something a little thicker than fluids. i bought some sf carnation instant breakfast to add my protein powder to..and i am so glad to say goodbye to the freaking Isopure.
I have felt like my normal self until about 30 mins ago. My hip suddenly felt stiff and i couldn't stand up. I walked all over the grocery store and i have folded towels and vacuumed so i know I'm not sitting too much. It just feels like a catch. I am trying to work that out now. so i gotta get off here lol
Take care everyone!!
hugs

I feel fine today. I walked around outside several times and Im trying to drink all my fluids. I hate this Isopure and it is killinfg me to drink it!  I only feel queezy when i drink that crap. I only have to do clear fluids one more day so Saturday I move to full liquids. Im excited to drink carnation instant bfast and have cream soup LOL I gained 7 lbs of fluid while in the hospital and yesterday I was back down to my true weight.
I hope all my friends are well..I will update ya later!

Im just a little sore today..not bad enough to take the Lortab..but i will take it if i need to. At first I thought I could drink with no problem but today it hasnt been so easy. But i am doing it...little by little. ONE DAY AT A TIME..LOL
I have the greatest  admiration for people who go thru this...it is HELL  and I know that that Im going to make it cuz so many of you have.
Just thought I would give a quick update..talk to ya guys later
>>HUGS<<<<<

Just thought I would let everyone know I am home. I am doing good..just a lil sore.
Im bout to take a nap and I will check in with you guys later!

Oh how wonderful! NOT..lmao I know this is something I have to do to be ready for tomorrow..So Im gonna put on my big girl pants now and drink this mess!  Why cant they make it taste good??? Damn...

I hope everyone enjoys Super Bowl Sunday!!  Im cleaning my house (gotta stay busy so I dont realize Im hungry or want food that i cant have) and getting everything together for tomorrow morning...MY DAY IS FINALLY HERE!!!!

I have been thinking about what i wanted as a reward when i reach my goal. And i know alot of us girls want to look fabulous in a wedding dress or at least get the long awaited purposal..well i want that but I think those should happen when it is meant to. I dont want to feel like "oh ya want to marry me now that im not fat" lol  So... my friends know im kinda wild..and i love motorcycles..and especially a sexxy man on one..(sorry my mind was wandering away)

BUT...ALAS THIS IS WHAT I HAVE DECIDED WILL BE MY GOAL REWARD TO MYSELF

YUP IT'LL BE ALRIGHT!!! LOL
I went to see my surgeon for a final pre-op visit today. I had to take my mom with me and he just
wanted to see if i had any questions..said my labs and EKG all look good from Tuesday. he listened to my heart and palpated my abdomen...put his arm around me and told my mom he is gonna take good care of me!

Short and sweet...
So guess what i will be doing on Super Bowl Sunday....yeah you know! The most glorious part...the prep for surgery
I don't care how nasty the junk is i have to drink...it is all worth it!!!
