Hi Jeri. I am so glad to hear you are doing well. Sorry I haven't been more talkative lately, I am finally coming out of hibernation and rejoining the real world. I know what you mean about sometimes forgetting you even had surgery, but usually my pouch reminds me very quickly and better than any teacher with a ruler! lol I have only gotten sick twice, but I learned my lesson well both times. Still having problems getting in all the protein, but I am trying. Write when you can and give me a more detailed update on you. Congrats on the lose so far. (((HUGS))) Elizabeth

Jeri, Congrats on the big loss! I tried to e-mail you but the mailer demon kept it from going thru. Thanks for the well wishes and I hope you are able to either call or come up to methodist this weekend. Would love to hear from you. (((HUGS))) Elizabeth

Hey Jeri! Just read your latest update. You are doing awesome. I know what you mean about the diuretics. My PCP figures I carry 15-20 lbs in each leg when they get swollen. Glad to hear you are doing so good. Keep it up! Sorry I haven't been more talkative lately, been trying to get all the pre-op stuff done for 10/3. (((HUGS))) ELizabeth

Hiya Jeri! Sorry I haven't called but during the day it seems like I run constantly. I am trying to find a place to live closer to DM so the BF doesn't have to commute so far each day, and trying to get moved, after I find the perfect place, before my surgery date. Guess I can spend my early post-op recovery time unpacking boxes! LOL Just wanted to tell you CONGRATS on the 36 lbs, and not a WORD about it ONLY being 6 weeks. You should have better elasticity in your skin if you lose a little slower. Just remember that. And, muscle weighs more than fat so you are probably loseing fat, but building muscle. So there! :P Big (((HUGS))) and I will call as soon as I have a bit to talk at a decent hour of the day! Elizabeth
