Thanks for sharin'. Congratulations on your surgery. Keep postin'. You're a hot mama.

I had my surgury on Jan. 24th. The Dr. said that my surgury went perfect. I am still in alot of pain but getting better everyday. I am going for my one week post op visit tomorrow. I will post my weight loss every couple of weeks.

Woooo!

I was getting worried there. Get well soon!

I've been reading through your posts... and I'm glad to hear the surgery went well. You can do it!!

Get Well Soon!!

Keep us posted!!

I went to my one week post appointment where they removed the drain that they had left during surgury and I feel so much better. I was down 15lbs. I am excited about the weight loss but I find myself thinking of food all the time. I am not physically hungery but mentally I am starving. I am looking foward to feb 7th. I get to start having soft foods again. at that point it will have been 4 weeks of just liquids.

wow 15lbs........that is amazing, take your vitamins and drink lots of water!!!
4weeks of liquids???
you are one strong woman!!!!!
keep us updated!

oh yeeks 4 weeks of liquids sounds nasty lol
I know what you mean about the mental eating thing. get on top of it now because otherwise you're gona regain the weight later on

so are you gonna start up a thread in the diary section and keep up the news so i can keep track?
Im interested in the process on how things are going, what side affects and stuff. I have no idea how it works and im sure others who have considered this option will be curious to know.

I got to start back on semi solid foods. I was so excited, but I am having a hard time because you are only allowed a few foods like oatmeal, eggs, yougurt, soft potatoes, sugar free pudding. I can only get about 3-4 bites down at a time before I start to feel full and alittle sick. I have talked to many people who have has this surgery and they assure me it will get better. I have to follow this stage of the diet for 2 weeks than I get to add more foods to my list and than I think I do that for a couple of weeks and than add more foods and so on and so fourth. I am losing weight still pretty rapidly but when your only get down a very very little calories, I also have to take alot of vitamins so that to keep up my immune system, and keep my body functioning since i am not getting enough nutreints from food. Even though this is very hard I still believe I made the right decision for me.

mmm i could live on oatmeal i reckon

Good on you for sticking with it. It must be fairly hard i would imagine to eat only those foods.

*hugs* stick with it. a friend of mine had it done and went back to eating junk and hes back up to his regular weight

I desided to post a few full length pic of my self. The pic in the pink shirt is before surg. I was about 275, and the pic in the black shirt was taken the other day. I am down to 250. I wish I had some of the pic from when I was 301 so you could see a bigger difference. I will continue to post pic of my progress.
