1 Week Post Op Visit...Down 23 Pounds

I had my first post op visit with the doctor yesterday. Belive me, I was really nervous when I stepped on the scale. I lost 23 pounds in the first week. I Can't Believe It. 23 gone forever......I am on my way to the new Michelle. As a bonus, I get to eat soft foods now for the next 3 weeks. I was really getting tired of broth. Walking every day and feel great. Thanks to everyone for all the support, you are great...God Bless Michelle

Many thanks to all of you for the great support and wonderful words. I am on a long journey. I know it is going to take a great effort to get from 436 lbs to my goal of 200 lbs. I am committed and I really don't care how long it takes, I WILL get there. The support of a lot of people have gotten me this far and will carry me all the way. I love being on the "Losing Side' and I know I will have some set backs, but I will beat this. Thanks for all the support and my best to all considering this surgery. It saved my life and I would recommend it to everyone. God Bless Michelle
