I am almost at my goal!
May 14, 2009
I still have alot of trouble with food, I also know I am not getting enough protein. That is something I am going to try and work on. Red meats are a big no, no for me and now i am having trouble with chicken. Really the only thing that works on my stomach is cheese and crackers and any bread or junk food. thankfully I don't really go near the junk food just a bite every now and then. I really don't keep the stuff in the house. And if I do have it I get so full so quick that it doesn't really matter.
Looking back to myself a year ago I would have never believed that I would be this happy. The surgery was one of the best decisions I have ever made.
till next time xoxox
Almost 2 months out

Here I am again, sorry I haven't updated in a while. I am now under 200lb. I have about 33 lbs. I am feeling good, but I feel like I am in a stall right now. I have not lost anything in about 2 weeks. I have been going to the gym about 3 times a week and keep VERY busy when not at the gym running around after my 3 kids. I am having some difficulty finding foods that I like and that agree with me. But this will pass (I hope). If anyone has some good ideas on high protein foods please pass them on. Thanks for checking out my profile. (if this entry sounded off it's cause I am very tried and writing late at night, SORRY) God Bless
2 weeks out

On another note, I am feeling better, much more like myself. I still have those "why did I do it" moments. But I am hoping that will change with food. There has been no post-op pain. And I am excited I get to start the gym. I have been having trouble keeping down any of the chewable vitamins. But have now switch to a Liquid Calcium, that helps since there was so many chewable Calcium's to take (6 to be exact). Well off to bed, just wanted to keep everyone updated. Also if anyone has any good ideas for the blended/pureed part of the diet they would be a great help! Thanks for checking in on my profile. Best wishes to all !!!!!

I am so excited. But now I have a whole new issues. I am now scared that I have made the right decision. What if there is complications, I have 3 small kids at home and what if something happens to me. I know I have been cleared and I am very good health other than my weight but I still worry!!!!! I guess it is normal to go back and forth with your feelings on this. I am hoping in the end this is worth it!
On another note, I go tomorrow for my pre-op nutrition and labs. I hope my weight went down some. That has been a problem for me.
till next time....
Waiting for insurance approval
