Hi Everyone!

Today I am 2 weeks out and doing great. I was having problems with the dreadful word "Constipation" for the first week out, but I called the nurse at my Dr.'s office and asked what to do about it, and she said to go get some Benefiber. So I did, and that wasnt working. I called back and asked for more suggestions, she said get Milk of Magnesia. I had some last nite, and all problems are solved. And also, I found out that the meds I was on previously to WLS, Causes constipation too, so thats why Im having problems with that. Other than that, im fantastic... No pain at all anymore when I cough or sneeze or hiccup. I am still trying to figure out how in the world I can get all my water in. I have done it only 2 times and it was because it was a very hot day and I was really thirsty. I have to get 64 oz. in a day, and that helps flush me out, so thats very important that I do that. I am very excited of how things are going, and as of my first weigh in at Dr. Bakers office I have lost 32 lbs. Thanks everyone for all the love and support.....

Hi friends!

So today we went to Walmart and I was walking around getting my exercise, and I decided to stop by the womens department.

My dad was with me, and he was looking at some jeans...( LOL I love my dad) He picks up a pair of 21's and a 23 (I was wearing a 26 at the time) and he says why dont you go try these on? I looked att he sizes and said "Are you crazy"? I didnt think I was small enough yet to be in anything lower then a 24. So I went along with it and headed to the fitting rooms to try on these nice LEI DESIGNER JEANS That were absolutely gorgeous...

I went in the fitting room and debated on which one to try and I chose the 21's first. I slid them up and buttoned them, looked at myself in the mirror and said WOW!!!!  I walked out of the rooms in to the opening and called my dad... HE STARTED CRYING!!!!! It was so awesome.... The best day ever!!

Hi Friends and viewers,

Iam very excited to be learning how to eat all over again and to be putting those baby spoons and dishes to good use. I have lost 6 lbs since being home. There will be more to come =)
