Well Im holding steady on the weight loss, just lost half a pound this past week but i have noticed im starting to  be able to eat more, i need to get my vitamins in but its so hard!!! bluk! i also need more protein which i gotta work on... i suppose i will need to start excercising so i can boost my weight loss and not be flabby...I feel like i also am not getting the support i need, half the people that use to keep in touch never even write any more and some of them are the ones who had surgery who were there before i had mine but now are no where to be found, i hope i dont act like that towards the people who haent had surgery yet that i talk to now!!! at any rate ill update more when things being to progress...

Just updating.. Things with swallowing have been getting better i just cant eat meat as much as i probably should but i have never been a huge meat eater, i think i may give up the meat and become vegetarian and just try to get my protein in a different way. So far if i had to do it all over again i would and it has been worth it, i do have my days and sometimes get frustrated but it was the best decision for me since i have been rapidly growing all over for months now, it was like some wild disease took over me causing me to gain a ton of weight, I went online to old navy and ordered me some new clothes so im really looking for ward to that. Ill try to get the hubby to take some pics of me to put on here... wow 52 pounds is alot!

Just an update... things have been hecktic but i have been able to eat a little more then i was, now i can eat a hard taco from taco bell, sometimes it feels awful but sometimes it settles, i have also ate the cheese topping off of a pizza, i have did a cheeseburger from mcdonalds with no bun but burger king ones are better, salad is becoming my best friend and i am starting to be able to eat it quite well but if there is meat on it ..it is very hard going down.. Still holding on the weight loss at the last posted amount, havent lost any more but i know i will so i wont stress over it, i need to start excercising tho... welp thats all i was here to say ill update as things progress.

So far I have lost from 275 to 229 so thats a 46 pound loss that i am very pleased with... I just cant wait to loose another 46 pounds and maybe even another after that. The only problem i am having is the cramping from going to the bathroom :( Other then that I ot my promotion to Team Manager at work... im so excited, they picked 3 of us out of 30 people left this week and they have 12 more to promote so that made me feel pretty good.... any ways just thought i would update....

Update

Jun 11, 2007

Still holding at about 43 to 44 pounds lost, im very excited about whats in store for me as i continue to loose weight, the only thing i wasnt prepared for was some of the after math of it all, one day i cn eat something and it settle with me good, i may it it the next day again or in a few days and it doesnt settle at all, makes my chest feel heavy as if its going o explode and it wont come up or go down its like it gets stuck or something, when i do try to make it come up all i get is a slimy flem, its awful, i dont know i hate to even eat any more because i dont know what to have and will it hurt my stomach, and another problem i have ran into is that it may settle but when i go to the bathroom to do number 2 i think i am dying because i have so much for such a small amount i ate, im o frustrated right now, im tired of not habing energy and i know i havent been taking my vitamins like i should which is part of it but thos optisource vitamins suck! i need to get me some iron a good vitamin and some b12 i think, i gotta do somethingcause i am suppose to have blood work done next month and need to make sure that i pass everything, dont want my hair and teeth and stuff falling out, its so hard right now, i need to start excercising and havent and dont feel the energy to even bring myself to do it... whats wrong wth me????
