I do wonderful some weeks on excerise and then on other weeks I do horrible..I still hate excerise, but I do manage to get some in. I do good with protein, but struggle with some of the shakes..smoothie king has become my bestest friend..lol gladiator with pineapple and mango..I am still in the running, just running a little slower..Hope everyone is doing wonderful..Keep up the good work and keep on sippin...

Day 23- Post Op
Oct 29, 2009
Okay so I still wear the same size, but I can grab a handful in the thigh area. I am interested in finding out if anyone else's Doctor told them no protein shakes. He wants me to get it out of natural foods..HMMM How am I going to get 60-70 grams of protein out of 4 oz of food three times a day. okay I have been doing wonderful. I am now up to walking four miles. I do two in the morning and two at night. I want to increase to doing some more stuff, but the Doctors office told me no exercising for six weeks except for walking. I am tired of walking I want to do something else to break the monotony. lol I hope everyone else is doing good. I am still struggling with the food some. I really don't like the blended healthy choice meals. I have been chopping up baked or boiled meat (chicken) in mashed potatoes and my second meal has been five meatballs and sauce in blender, I also have been drinking four ounces of carnation instant breakfast, some mornings I have scrambled eggs.. Woo Hoo the variety is killing me..lol I tried chopping the shrimp scampi. Yew gross my babies ate it..lol They think they are getting a treat eating the stuff mama doesn't eat. What they don't know is it is all healthy. lol I have also started giving them sugar free stuff and they don't know the difference. lol Sometimes it is good being mama and you feel like you have a joke only you know about..Hope everyone is doing wonderful...Keep on walkin and Sippin.

Day 19- Post Op

Ok today is not a good day emotionally. I am so afraid I am not gonna lose this weight. I am down 37 lbs, but I still wear the same size. It has been a really rough day for me. I feel like a failure even though I am doing everything I am supposed to. I find myself not wanting to eat at all, because I am scared I will not lose. I am making myself eat the four ounces I am supposed to eat.I am getting all my fluids and walking a mile a day, because the Dr.'s office doesn't want me huffing and puffing for another two weeks. Does anyone else feel like this? I know I need to lighten up, but it has been really hard for me. I hope everyone is doing good. Keep on walkin and sippin.

Day 15- Post Op
Oct 22, 2009
I went to the Doctor Wednesday and He said I am doing wonderful. I started the soft stage of the diet. So far so good. I am cautious of what I eat. I have been told to limit everything to four ounces at a meal. I still don't feel hungry, so that has been a wonderful blessing. I am down 35 lbs total.. I am thankful. I personally can't see the weight loss, but some of my family tell me there is a difference. I guess for me I will know I have lost weight when I go to a smaller size and what I have is falling off of me. Today I started walking on my treadmill. Dr. Weinstein said I could walk just no huffing and puffing.

Day 8- Post Op
Oct 15, 2009
I am down 32 pounds total. I decided I am gonna weight every Wednesday, since that is the day I had surgery. The crystal light is just too sweet and I feel like I am drinking syrup. I am ready for the phrase of my diet when I can have scrambled eggs. I am ready for something to chew. lol I am only one week out and I miss chewing. I did get to start the protein shakes yesterday. Dr. Weinstein does not want his clients to put more than four ounces in our pouch. So I have been drinking four ounces for breakfast, four ounces for lunch, and I freeze whats left and eat it as a snack in the afternoon. I hope everyone is still sipping and doing good. Everyone keep up the good work.
Day 5- Post OP

I got it wrong I lost 25 pounds..Yay me! I am still sore, it would help if little elbows did not meet my tummy. lol but what can I say they want to be close to mommy. Spent several hours last night watching the food network. No hunger, but man everything looked wonderful. Some people would say why torture yourself? But actually I spent more time watching how the chefs put everything together and it was neat. Used to I would watch and be starving, but now it is all about the technique. I was able to get in all my water yesterday for the first time. I have been able to drink 3 bottles, but getting in that fourth one was really hard. It is sad when even sugar free tastes too sweet. lol never thought I would say that. I am feeling wonderful in spirit and hope everyone is as happy as I am about their journey.
