Just puttin my 2cents in!

Aloha all!

Just haven't been by to say howdy and Happy Holidays to all my support sisters and bro's!
I am down 30lbs and doing GREAT!  No problems, eating solid foods ok and taking it slow!  Drinking my water and TRYING to go slow in my eating!  THAT is a TRUE challenge!   All you pre-ops should TRY eating slow NOW!   30mins for 4oz!!  It takes awarness!  I"m doing it though, one episode of fast eating taught me my lesson!

Hope everyone has the kind of holiday they pray for!  Mine will be without FUDGE for the first time in 21years!  A SMALL trade off for my health!

Bless you all and as we say in the islands, A hui ho!

Love and hugs

I am right with you on advising the Pre-Ops to start "training" themselves to eat slow now! Save yourselves from horrible stabbing upper back pains with throwing up.


Great job on your 30 pound weight loss already! Keep up the great work!!

I am practicing.. It is HARD!!!  I hope to get it figured out come surgery day..  Thanks for the heads up...

Hugs,

I agree!  That is so hard to do.  I like meat okay, but I just want to eat and swallow.  But, trying to chew it 30 times!  OMG!   It breaks down to ewwwww.

But, I'm pre-op and I'm trying...   I don't want to wait till I have surgery to start trying to get that portion of it togerher.
