Tanya is home, and
hopefully, resting
and getting in her
fluids. Good luck,
and let me know if
you need anything.

2 month update So it's just a little over 2 months since my big day. I am down a whooping 55 pounds and feel so awsome. Energy level is terrific and the body is definitely showing the 55 pound lost. People at work stop me almost every day. I am always hearing how great I look and friends keep referring to me as "Hey Skinny". Now I know better then to let this all go to my head. I did not have this surgery for the approval of others, but I would be lying if I didnt say it was nice. The wierdest part is the attention I get from guys now. I am still very much overweight and still need to lose another 85 pounds before I would consider myself "done" with the weight loss. But people must be picking up my vibes cause the attention is almost comical.
Now for the "other" stuff. The gas is better, I do have more frequest bowel movements, but not too bad. I can definitely tell when I have eaten ehough and need to stop cause it's pretty ugly if I even try to eat more than I should.
The vitamins.....I honestly truly struggle with getting my vitamins in. Somedays I forget them at home, or I take the morning pills and forget the evening pills. It would help considerably if I could take the pills all in one shot.. I plan on asking the dietitian about this next month. But somehow I know the answer will be NO. I hate taking them....that is what it comes down to for me. I know that this is just a stubborness on my side, but I don't like it. I do know that the vitamins will save my life, so I need to just get over it...... and I am sure I will. Especially since I have written this for the world to see..... have no choice now.
Later,
TB
