Hello all who read....
Well I had my surgery on 9/16/08. Everything went very well. I feel terrific. But, I feel like I am constantly thinking of food (planning).
It amazes me that I am not hungry.
I have to remember to drink my water, and chew...chew...chew. My new mantra!
I have been walking, and am up to 3/4 mile with no problem. The dog gets tired, but that is a good thing.

My date changed
Aug 05, 2008
I had to change my date. It is now 10 September. I couldnt get the week off from work. That is ok. But now, I am more nervous than ever. Eating wise, it has been tough. I was doing so well. This week, I am off track.
I need structure.
I have had all my pre-op stuff, and am down 22 pounds. Would have been 24. I am a little down in the dumps. OK....snap out of it!
See ya next week.

Have a date!
Jul 15, 2008
Well, I have a date. Things have been going well, I have modified my eating, gave up caffeine 
(boy do I miss it...cold caffeine was my thing).
I have a date of 8/19/08, that was shockingly quick. I have lost just under 20 pounds since 7 June. I am proud of that. My DH is very supportive. He went to my appt with me yesterday to talk with the surgeon.
So far so good. I may have to change the date because my boss is on vacation. I really dont want to, but need to figure this out. Prayers on a good outcome. I dont want to wait too long.
Anyway....more later.

I have been lurking long enough.
I started this journey on 6 June. I originally was planning on the lap band, but now I am considering Roux-n-Y. I am concerned about complications on both sides, but more concerned with, What if the band slips....
I started my weight journey....this time at an all time high of 386.3. I cant believe I let myself get to that point.
I need to stop stuffing my emotions, literally. I know we have all been there. Why is it so hard?
I have been working with a therapist on this, and know that I am now ready to lay my demons to rest with food.
I kind of like the high protein, low carb. I also was drinking about 64 oz of Diet Pepsi per day, and now am ALMOST done with it. I average 0-4 oz per day. I dont even like the taste anymore.
Thanks for reading.....
