3 Weeks

Jun 11, 2007

So its been 3 weeks. I have been about 217 for almost a week. I am not worried, I have read enough profiles on here to know that weight falls off fast but then starts to slow. I am still not getting enough protein. I have tried some fruit and have done well. I still try not to pick up anything or bend to the floor too much. I will get pain from my largest incision if I do. Next month my Mom and I are going to join a gym. I started out at a tight size 20 and I am now an 18. My waist seems to be about the same size but I have lost alot in my butt and legs. I can now wear my wedding rings again. I finally had a day at work with no pain but I did alot and came home and slept for 5 hours.

Back to work

Jun 05, 2007

2 weeks went real quick. I did not want to go back to work. Plus I manage a restaurant. I made it about 5 hours on Monday and today I managed a full 8 hours. But I drove home and went right to sleep after each day. I have lost 28lbs in 2 weeks 1 day. I am not drinking my protein and my vitamins seem to get stuck. I eat mostly yogurt and tuna. I do eat some chicken but I have to chew it real well. I had grilled salmon too. oh yeah and scambled eggs. I seem to always have a bad after taste and water just doesn't seem to make it go away.

Staples be gone!

I got my staples out yesterday. I really could not stand them! I have lost 24lbs in a week and a half. I get to eat soft foods now. I cant wait.

Bowel prep done.

May 20, 2007

I feel like crap. It was really hard to drink the Fleets. I feel sick to my stomach and hungry. I slept for a while but it is not making this day go any faster. After 4 years it is really hard to believe I only have hours left. I made a will and left it with a friend from work. I didnt want to give it to my husband, he got so upset just when I told him about it.  I will see you all on the other side!

2 Days!

May 19, 2007

1 week to Bowel Prep!

May 12, 2007

I think I am a little too excited about that. I am making cupcakes and brownies for the last time. Tonight I got teary remembering when I got too fat to sit on my Dads lap. Also my husband actually showed a little bit of excitement.
