Seven Weeks Post Op and 45+ lbs down

Well I weighed myself this morning and I am now at 250 lbs. If you have seen my wedding photos then you can see what 250 looks like on me. I am working on post op photos and videos. I was 250 when my husband and I decided to get married in 2004. Wow, how time flies. I am excited because I am going to find some old pictures to get them on here to show some then and now comparisons. Now that I am feeling better I can get on here and start corresponding again.

the road would be easy and it is not, for me. Well I had the RNY on 12/22/08. was supposed to go home on 12/23 but had a longer stay because of bp. I am in a lot of pain I will write later as I start to feel more up to par.

Ok! I wrote a blog and was asked to share it here so here it goes.

OK Guys, I am down 10lbs since starting my preop diet. I was actually able to put on a blouse that I  have not been able to wear in awhile. It's not tight in my mid section. YEAH! This is only the beginning. I still have today thru Sunday to be on this so I am sure I will reach my 15 lb preop loss goal. YEAH!!! Anyhow, I have been in prayer for all that have had surgery , going in to have surgery, and are desiring to have surgery. Don't lose hope!!!

Thank you for all of your love and support and I am going to take some preop pictures so I can get them on here by the end of the week.
 
This has been  a very busy month for me and I have not had time to sit and take a breather. Got the retreat out the way. God truly showed up and showed out. I was so very proud of the young girls that came that was ready to get what God had in store for them. I was blessed to hear some of the women say that they pressed their way because so many obstacles came up but they made it! God got the glory!!!

The Big Day is coming and I am sooooo very much looking forward to it.  The Liquid diet has not been bad. There is a method to it though. Taking your time drinking the shakes and eating the bars is very important. It gives your stomach time to tell your brain you are eating and eventually that you are full. My schedule is :

7:30 am Slim Fast Shake
9:30 am Slim Fast Meal Bar
11:30 am Slim Fast Meal Bar
1:30 pm Sensible Meal
3:30 pm Slim Fast meal Bar
5:30 pm Slim Fast Meal Bar
7:30 PM Slim Fast Shake.

All is well. I must say that it was nasty, that chalky stuff they give you. Praise God it was moving and coating all the way through so everyhting looks good.

Now I just need to get my liquid diet in order.
