Water
Mar 20, 2007
Well, I think I have figured out what was making me sick to my stomack when I drank water right after surgery!! The tempature of the water would hit my pouch and it hurt then I would get sick. Now if I drink normal water I am fine!!! By normal I mean room tempature. It sure is working better now. Everything else is fine at this point. Later
Clothing
Mar 10, 2007
Hi!!!
I have done better! I have gone down 2 sizes in clothing now but the weight is still the same. I am starting to drink the water a little better now. But I can only take small amounts now or I will get sick. So, I guess it is always going to be difficult to drink water. It always has been for me.
By for now,

On the Losers Bench Now!!
Mar 03, 2007
Hi everyone!!
Well, Here I am back and on the losers bench now!! I can't believe that the surgery is over. It was not as bad as I thought it would be. Now the Job of getting to know my body is the hard part. I am out 19 days and I am eating just about everything I want. The funny part of it. I don't really find anything that is so fantastic to eat. I have never had the problem of finding food that was really good. Everything has a blaaaa..... flavor. I am wondering why this is? I think I am finally learning what full feels like also.
I have lost 11 lbs. since surgery as of the 28th of February. So I feel this is a pretty good average. The doctors are sure liking it. I am too but, I think I am expecting to much cause the sizes of clothing are not going down like everyone elses are. I am still wearing the cloths that I wore when I was 70 lbs, heavier. Why??

post-op
Feb 22, 2007
Well, I'm back!! I made it!! I'm not doing to bad. In fact I got my tail chewed at my first post-op visit for doing to much. So he wished the flu on me!! I have been sick with the flu now for about 36 hours. I am having those stupid stonack cramps!! But I can only laying bed for so long and my back hurts. So I have to get up.
Other than this I am doing great I have lost another 8 pounds. I am quite happy about that. I just don't know whow I am going to do when I stop losing so easily. I will get mad at myself. But I guess I will have to deal with that when it comes.

Last Day!!!
Feb 11, 2007
Well, Today is my last day before surgery!! I am really getting nervous and shaking. But I will live with it and be better after it is all over. I can't wait to have the tool to help me lose the weight and look like a normal person. I have embrassed myself and my family for long enough. It is time to do something about it. So that is what I'm doing is taking charge. With this tool I wil get my weight off and stay there. This is my contract with myself. I will also become a person that will donate time to helping others. thank You for listening to me and I will talk more after surgery.
8 Days
Feb 04, 2007
Here I am with only 8 days to go. I am refusing to think about the surgery to much. I don't want to get to nervous before time. I have enough problems with panic attacks as it is. I am just trying to get thing is line here at the house. Trying to get DH ready so he knows where everything is at. I really think I have him just about ready now. He is so funny! He is doing protein drinks also and he is losing his tummy. His belt had to be moved up one hole. His pants kept falling off!!! He is such a kick!! I am very happy and thankful for all his support through this. I really don't think I could have done it with out all of his support and help.
