Back from 1 week post op visit (early dr visit)

Dr E and PA have office hours on Wednesday.   I had my first dr appt today... Im down 5 pounds and that is 3% of my body weight! YAY!

Good job Amanda keep up the good work! And keep us posted !

I sure will.. how are you doing? How are things going?

YEAH! Hooray for you! You're doing well...keep it up!

Thanks C :) How's things on your end???

Doign well, though I've been told by a few friensd that i've gone MIA on them...lol.  I'm just busy with the holidays, changing jobs and trying to spend time with my husband.....I guess this is the point that "real life" starts to take over and you have to make a more concerted effort to stay in touch with your support group/friends.  On a side note...I'm only 2 pounds from onderland....I've been waiting forever (it seems) to get there so I'm getting a bit excited. I'm hoping my trip home for Christmas will be just the push I need!! Merry Christmas!

OMG Im going to do a happy dance for you    <---That's me... with out touching my toes (a little ow! still)

Awesome!!!!  How are you doing so far?

Im doing well so far ... I did have a slight tiny round with dumping yesterday, I ate too much or too fast. But didn't umm...   just nausea and cold clammy head... so Im learning to drink and eat slowly.....  Ive been craving greasy cheesburger for some reason... but managed to just let it be a thought... I get to go to pureed foods on Friday, so Im excited.  Applesauce is calling my name. Im sorry about your knee that really sucks! Hopefully the surgery to repair the ACL will do the trick. In 2003 I tore my minscus in my left knee, so I feel that pain!

yeah part of my surgery will include repairing the minscus as well.
