Okay well, I know I have not posted for a while...so many new changes has occured in my life since my surgery.  All for the GOOD!!! I have lost a whole person pretty much...125 pounds.  I am wearing a SIZE 8!!! OMG!!!!  I am now single, which means my husband left me after my surgery.  But dont feel bad for me, LIFE IS GREAT!!! I have all the confidence in the world, and I LOVE LIFE.  I am working out out almost everyday, running, eliptical, arm weights, and leg lunges.  I am fortunate not to have much skin to be removed, but I will be getting the girls done.  Wow how they have shrunk. LOL.  Anyway, I love this tool, and I am so GRATEFUL FOR DR.KRAHN.. LUV YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

1 Month Surgiversary

Dec 28, 2007

Well just 2 days ago was my 1 month date for my wls.  i am amazed at how good I feel.  I have lost a total of 55 pounds.  I already had a slow week last week, but when I went to see Dr. Krahn, Brian his PA said not to worry, and that I am doing great.  We talked for a little while about a lot of different things, that I had questions about.  I am so happy I made this life change.  I cannot wait to see what else is to come.

2 week Dr appointment went great!!

Dec 14, 2007

Yesterday I had my 2nd apppointment since my WLS, and everything went great.  I have lost 20 lbs since having my wls on 11-26.  I am looking forward to so much more.  I am happier than I have been in such a long time.  I know I still have a long ways to go, but I am so Thankful and appreciative to my doctor, Dr. Krahn and to the Lord for helping me to go through this.  I am excited to see the changes in me, in all aspects of this new life.  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!!

14 days since my WLS

Dec 10, 2007

Today it has been exactly 2 weeks since my surgery.  I am soooooo HAPPY that I have this new tool.  I am grateful to my Surgeon, Dr. Krahn....he is awesome.  Even though since surgery I have had some minor set backs, I feel great!  I really hated to take the pain meds because, i felt sick, but I came to the realization, I will not feel better, if I am just laying around in pain.  I am up moving around more and even got out of the house today.  The sun felt good.  I really need to focus on drinking more everyday.  I am starting soft foods.  So far, I have tried; refried beans, cottage cheese, tuna, soft scrambled eggs, and protein drinks.  I dont like the taste of crystal lites, so I have only been drinking water.  Since my surgery day, I have lost 18 pounds.  Total 45 pounds. I am really happy!  :)

Today is my surgery day!!! November 26, 2007

Dec 10, 2007

I had my surgery on November 26th.  I do not recall much about it other than waking up in a lot of pain.  I had a week long stay at the hospital.  Everything went great with my surgery, I had some swelling the next day when I had to go in and have my upper gi done.  I am happy to be going home.

Pre-op Appointment and class

Nov 20, 2007

I had my pre-op class Last Friday, everything went great.  I will have to have my gallbladder taken out.  I have had a hard time sleeping and I think it is because this is all getting so real.  It seemed like forever getting all my appointments and now that it is here I am nervous.  Trying to get everything in order so my Husband will have it easy, while I am in hospital and recovering at home.


Appointment with Dietician

Nov 14, 2007

My appointment with the Dietician went very well, she explained the surgery with me again, and went over what I would be expecting during my stay in the hospital.  She talked about Vitamins.  I will need to take liquid.  Multivitamin, B12, Biotin, Calcium citrate, and Iron.  She metnion not totake Iron and Calcium at the same time, because they compete.  I will also take COQ10,and Omega 3.
