My first fill was this past Monday, 9/29. According to the scale in the Doc's office I weighed 282 but that was at 4pm and fully dressed. This morning my WII fit said 276.2. I'll go with that. I'm not loosing as fast as I thought I would but I am loosing. Also, my cloths are really loose. Yesterday I had on some pants that I was able to take off without unzipping. I am having a lot of fun "shopping" in my closets. I have found some really nice outfits that I had forgotten all about.

Today is my 2 week bandiversary! Yea When I got on my WII Fit this morning it told me I weigh 279.6 that's 11.9 pounds since my surgery. Yesterday was my first post-op visit with my NUT. Julie is great. We spent a lot of time talking about ways to get enough protein and calcium because I am lactose intolerant. She also told me I could start eating regular food. I went out to dinner last night with my DH. I ordered salmon and it was great. I couldn't eat it all but it was gret. The funny thing was everyone else at the table was chowing down with drinks and appetizers but I didn't feel deprived at all. One last thing. My wedding rings are getting very loose. I can make them come off by shaking my hand. I wonder if it is too soon to get them sized? I'll post a question on the forum and see what they have to say.

Today was a milestone. I had to get back to work and that required actually getting dressed and putting on a real bra. There was no way in hell I could go out with these 46 F's flopping in the breeze. I was a little worried about how it would feel because of the positioning of the incisions. I am happy to say I didn't have a problem all day!!! I had a small NSV today - my first! While I was getting dressed this morning I looked in my jewelry box for a pin and saw a ring I hadn't been able to wear for almost 2 years. Well guess what, IT FIT!!!!

Well, its been almost exactly a year since I started this journey but I finally had my surgery two days ago (8/27). It went well. I feel great. I actually worked most of the day today. The gas is a little uncomfortable but other than that things are going fine.
