Ok, so it has been awhile since I have posted. 

It has been 3-1/2 months since surgery.  I am down 66 lbs after a 3 week stall.  My hair has started to fall out, but I have a ton of hair, so I am not stressing on that one - although it does shock me how much comes out each morning....lol.

I take my vitamins.  I take a Centrum Silver chewable, a B-12 dot, Caltrate chewable each day.  I probably don't take enough vitamins, but I at least take some!
My eating probably leaves something to be desired, but it is really hard to find anything to go down well.  I find that carbs go down the best for me - I pretty much can't keep any meats down.  They all make me sick!  FF seem to go down best - but don't blast me - I only get to eat a few. 
I have found I don't like the taste of Splenda anymore.  I crave lemons and limes.  If I could drink soda, I would put down some Sprite!!  LOL   I have found that water hurts when it goes down - cold, warm, or room temperature.  Iced tea goes down very good though.  I have had to switch to sweet tea though - and I am sure that isn't great, but it is one of the only ways that I am getting fluids.
This week I have tried to have a protein drink each day so that I can up my protein since I can't get/keep meat down.

I also read somewhere that Lexapro (which I take) will keep you from losing weight - so that may have something to do with my slow losing - probably has more to do with me not eating 100% what I am supposed to!
Anyway - that is my update for now.  I am 4 lbs away from making my first major goal; getting under 200!
