IslandMomma
Momma to 4 great kids and just want to be able to enjoy life to the fullest.....Have been heavy since I was about 10 (product of a divorce) and have never really been hindered by it...Had a great high school experience, travelled internationally, met my hubby and finally settled down back here is PEI in 1995....then the kids came and the extra weight never left....this past Xmas was my heaviest at 370..No more...
Had my first meeting with Dr B in Sept of 2011, full day info session in Dec'11 and the head doctor meeting and approval by early March '2012. Now just waiting for my next meeting with Dr B and get my actual surgery date...I have been doing the Atkins plan since mid Feb and is now down to 355. Happy Happy...and not missing out or being hungry or anything...cant wait to do the 2 week shake diet.....
Surgery May 10, 2012...weight was 342 day after the surgery. No real pain from the surgery...only pain was from trying to drink... so much gas!!!! OUCH...But as they all say...each day gets easier....
3 week check up..May 29, 2012. Staples removed..NO PAIN....not getting enough protein or water...have to work on both...but good news...weight is 320....that means I am down 50 lbs since Feb!!!!! 22 since the surgery...nice
