2 Wk. Post Op

Had my 2 wk. post op today with the PA and everything is going just fine.  I have lost a total of 22 lbs. since pre-op.  I guess this is good.  The PA was very attentive and answered all my questions. 

While at the appointment there was a family that came in for their appointment all the way from Indio.  What a long drive.  Anyway, when I left, I ran across two of them sitting in thier car and what very nice people they were.  I told them all about the OH and told them to log onto the OH site and join us in the Calif. forum.  I mentioned how welcomed they would feel and how much more support they would get here versus the Support Group Meetings.  I hope they decide to join us, they seem like such a very nice family and like to laugh.

Well, I hope everyone is having a great day and I will TTYL

Keep up the great weight loss everyone.

Hi Annette..
Thats awesome!  Im glad all is going well and your appt went well!   I started soft foods today ha ha  I had a scambled egg... and guess what?  it wasn't as exciting as i thought it would be ha ha

Im glad you invited more nice peeps to the board, it truly is the best support place ever!

Congrats on your weight loss! you are doing super!! yay!

hugs,

Jackie

Hi Jackie.

I stary soft foods on Monday.  Since I go back to work on Monday I asked if I could have a boiled egg instead of a scrambled egg.  It is ok as long as I cut it up very, very good.  I know an egg is not exciting, especially since I prefer fried eggs or omletts.  Guess I will have to see which works better for me, scrambled or boiled.  If I have to do scrambled, I am going to change my hours at work to come in a 1/2 hour later giving me time to eat bkfst. because I am usually so rushed in the morning.  I am never organized in the morning, guess I will just have to plan my menu the night before so I can just grab from the fridge and go.

I am going to try decaf on Monday as well.  We have decaf at the office but regular at home.  I am not a big coffee drinker, about 1 cup a day if that.

Tonight I went walking for a little longer and actually walked about 3/4 mile tonight.  I will drive it in the morning to verify the distance.  Now if I could do this everynight, the weight or the toning may be a little quicker.

Well, i'll be chatting with you again soon.

Love Annette

22 pounds lost in two weeks is awesome!  At three weeks out I was 30 pounds lighter so you're doing great.

I still have a hard time figuring out this board.  The 22 lbs. is since June 19th which is just over a month, but I'll take it.

Thanks for your support and comment.

Congrats on your weight loss and keep it going.

Annette

You are doing great - congrats!  Keep up the good work and relax, everyone is somewhat different in the timing and rate of weight loss - especially early out.

Have a good one!

Annette,

You're doing a great job and congratulations on your weight loss so far.  Way to rock that tool.  Isn't it fun to know you're just getting healthier?

Keep up the great work!
