11 Months Out!
We leave for Hawaii tomorrow morning and it will be my first time in an airline seat since the surgery. Funny thing is that now that I could fit, my wonderful son-in-law decided to upgrade us to first class so I won't be able to tell the difference! However, I'm sure I'll have much more energy to enjoy our vacation.
I still have problems getting all my water and protein in but I do my best. I go back next month for my one-year check up and I'm a little concerned about my labs since I've been a little lazy in taking my vitamins (kind of hit and miss). I don't eat bread or rice and only a bite or two of pasta but not very often. I don't do protein shakes but I do eat powercrunch protein bars and have a greek yogurt everyday.
I'm down a total of 143.8 lbs (that's an entire person) and I would do this all over again if I had to, but I hope it's for life!

sit in a seat so you can see the difference. Wait until your the last one off the plane, or if the
plan isnt full, hop in a seat so you can see and feel the difference. " Just a suggetion"
Amazing you lost 143 pounds! Congratulations with your 11 months and your amazing weight
loss. Huuugs

It's nice to hear from someone who, like me, isn't always the strictest follower for water, protein and vitamins. I do try as well but have found hitting the mark to be "hit or miss".
However, I don't stress and it's working.
You look so good! You are an inspiration.
I hope you have a great time in Hawaii.
