I guess I should update my blog since it's been about a month since my last post.

For those who don't know what the eating is like, I had to be on liquids for 3 weeks, then soft foods for 4 weeks, then I was free to eat real food.

I mentioned sticking my finger into foods and licking them in my last post. That was only because I was still on the liquid phase.

It seems like I can eat just about anything now. Nothing has made me sick. I haven't thrown up. I just can't eat very much of anything at all.  

After the first few weeks, I seem to be losing about 2 lbs per week.  I don't think I'm going to make my doctor's goal as speedily as the chart he gave me says I should. I would have to lose 9 lbs in  the next two weeks and I think that might be tough.  I'm really happy losing 2lbs a week and not even trying. I know that if I would actually start exercising, it would probably speed up.

We ordered a weight bench from Walmart.com and are waiting for it to be shipped to the store. It might take about 2 weeks. Paul and I are planning on doing the Body for Life program as soon as it arrives. I need to tone up this sagginess!
