Topic: Clothes
My 22 jeans were way loose. Hubby said it wasn't too noticeable until I pointed it out. I put on an OLD pair of 20's and they fit. It made me happy....since I have been feeling so crummy =P

Topic: Foods
So Monday night/Tuesday I started semi-soft foods.
I've tried cottage cheese, grilled tilapia, and salmon with light mayo. All went really well with no problems! And it felt really good to CHEW food!
I really want some scrambled eggs, but my kitchen is a MESS - thanks (or no thanks) to hubby and not washing dishes in like three weeks!! Hmmm - wasn't my surgery three weeks ago?? =P

Topic: RE: how long did the wls prosess take you
Well. I made the decision January 2009. Saw my PCP in February, told me to contact the place I wanted to have it done to get in "their" program. First appointment with OSHU was mid-April (want to say the 13th) of 2009.
6 month diet for insurance, and then some messups with getting paperwork organized. I wasn't approved until February 6th of this year. And then surgery 2 months later. So TOTAL time was 14 months, but a year from my first OSHU appt to surgery.

Topic: RE: Anyone having trouble with WATER???
I like Sobe Lifewater Yumberry Pomegranate and the Black&Blue Berry. They are naturally sweetened with PureVia. The others I've tried just don't taste right to me.
I drink Crystal Light Fruit Punch but it seems a little too sweet to me some days and fine others.
I also started drinking 8th Continent Light Original soy milk.
