I have done well.  I won't say it was easy but it was worth it.  I am still trying to lose more weight but it has gotten harder.  I have a great doctor though that is supporting me and trying to help keep me on the right track.  I have had a turn of events and my daughter and her family had to move in with us which has put a huge burden on us, financially as well as mentally.  I have put on 15 of the pounds I lost so I am back to trying to go back wards from the beginning of my surgery and go tot he gym more often.  I have already taken off 3 of the pounds but will have to continue to work and not let others get in my way of taking care of me.

Good Luck to everyone out there that is struggling!

I go today for my 1 month Post -Op appointment with the Nutritionist and the doctor.

I sure hope I get good news.  I have been on a liquid diet for almost 5 weeks now it will be 5 weeks this Wednesday.  It is getting harder to put the soup up to my mouth and all the protein shakes.

I haven't been loosing on the scale so much but clothes are fitting looser and everyone keeps telling me how skinny I am getting.  At this point it is still a numbers game and I want to see the numbers on the scale come down.  We shall see what the scale at the doctors office say as a pposed to my scales at home and go from there.

Wish me luck!!  I will post later how it goes at the doctors!

Well, have had an up and down time recently.

I have not lost anything in over a week.  I am still on liquid diet.  I just want to eat some real food.

My doctor wants me on liquid diet for as long as I can handle it , he said that my stomacj was thicker than normal and that concerned them so he wants me on liquid longer to give my stomach enough time to heal.  I have only been getting in about 500 to 1000 cals a day and most of my protein (they want me to get 80 - 100 grams) and also pushing the water, getting at least 6 glasses sometimes 8.  Clothes are getting losser but scale is not going down.

I go to the doctor on Monday and hopefully he will let me move to pureed diet, can't believe that I am looking forward to pureed foods!!  Haven't been able to eat fruit and all my favorite are on sale so I bought Bing Cherries yesterday and dpitted them and froze them to eat later when I can have them.  Also am going to freeze blueberries, strawberries and blackberries.

Hope everyone is doing well with their weight loss.

YEAH!!

I am so ready for this, but I do have butterflies in my stomach too!

Thanks God for my support team, my husband and my parents will be there with me.

Bring is on, I am so ready to start my new life!!  :)

I am so excited, but also nervous with the prospect of this new adventure.

I am so ready for this new life style and so much has happened leading up to this, I am afraid to get to excited since I was suppose to have the surgery on Friday May 11 and ended up having it postponed at the last minute do to results from my EKG.

After more test my heart is fine and I have my clearance and I pray to GOD that there will be no more disappointments and all goes as planned.

Have to go back to eating my yogurt and drinking my water.
