Feeling Great
Jun 17, 2009
I know I was so fixated on the scale for a while there....had a brain fart! Anyway I am so happy I had this surgery done. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner. But had I done that I would not have had the most awesome surgeon, Dr. Sonnanstine, perform it. I feel so much better than I did before the surgery. I can do so much more already. I am happier and people have commented on how much happier I seem. I hear everyday from people at work how much I have changed and how much I have lost so far. Even though I still don't physically see it myself it is so encouraging to hear it from everyone. Its been 7 weeks today and I have lost 33lbs WOW!!! I could not have done it on my own. This surgery is truly a blessing. God has so watched over me and helped me through it all. I could not have done it without His blessings. I just can't believe how much more energy I have getting rid of 33 lbs. It is amazing. And it is only going to get better and better. I just walked at work with 3 of my friends there and we walked 3 miles......For me that is downright awesome! And I feel so good about the fact that I am able to do it now. The only thing I have noticed with me that is different from what I have heard from alot of people on OH is I have been able to eat most things without any problems. I have had chicken, fish, ground turkey, turkey, ham, ground beef, garlic, hot sauce, onions, peppers, mac and cheese, eggs, milk, coffee etc...I even tried a bite of a coffee cake with cream cheese icing (very small bite). The only thing that has really changed is I can not eat much bread at all, which is fine. Even though I can eat all these things I am still watching what goes in my mouth and I am doing well....I have not even missed any of the fast food places I use to frequent. I was never a big sweets eater so that is not a problem for me. I want to get this weight, ALL OF IT! off and keep it off....never to return.....Thank you God for the many blessings you bestow on me every single day!!!!!!!!!!
