Well I'm 9 months out and I made my weight goal of 150 and below that. I'm so happy so much energy, so much more life to me. I love it. I'm also in a size Junior 7 pants and shorts size L in Juniors. I have been wanting to do more going out for walks, taking the horses out, working outside and taking the kids for a bike ride........I'm not saying this was an easy 9 months i have had to work my butt off and have had my ups and my downs.....

2 months out
Sep 24, 2009
Been too long since my last post. I am 2 months out and feeling sooooo much better. I have found out though i can't eat some of the meats so i just eat the refried beans and keep taking my protine as afftan as i can remember.
Went out riding for the first time last weekend and it was great i never felt better getting back in the saddle. AND i can do it with out getting on a step to get in the saddle it was amazing and it was one of my goals that i made. This weekend we are planning an over night ride, i can't wait. I have also got a new horse. Just a lil guy, can't wait till next fall when i can start taking him out on the trails.

3 days out
Jul 19, 2009
well Im just sitting here for a lil while then going to go and try and get out for a walk this afternoon.
I am 3 days out and man let me tell you i wouldn't change anything in the world to have this surgery but its no picnic either. Its alot of work. I have too keep reminding myself to eat and to keep drinking fluids. Never thought i would have too do that one day when before surgery i ate when i wanted and and drank in lots of liquids fast till my thirst was quenced.
My surgery went great, despite the fact that gas sucks and hurts when it builds up. It was all worth it, That was one of my goals in the hosplital was to fart. I had so much of it it was hurting. Sounds kind of funny but when you get to blow some of the access out you feel so much better. I will be getting a scale so i can keep track of my waight loss along the way.

appointments 2 of 6
Jul 04, 2009
This past Thursday i had 2 appointments out of the 6 left to do before surgery day.
The first one was to go and see the physical therapist, this was to get messurements and see how my blood pressure would do with some small tests. The last appointment too see my surgan. I hate it when they have to do a weight check, this time it went up. i saw the numbers 268 and i was what the heck im more acctive in doing things i have cut back on eating and begging to add more water to my diet, and leaving the sugars behind, so i keep thinking where is this weight comming from? all i could do was think about it the whole purpose of this changing my eating habbits was to loose some before surgery not gain it, and im not even sure where in the world them lil fat cells hit.
Next is the pre op visit with my regular doctor. Hope all goes well this wednesday.
HAPPY 4TH!!!!!!
