things are well

Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't posted much. Even though I have been off of work for the past 2 weeks, I have been busy. I have realized who my true friends are. Derek, who had been on drugs, actually has been there for me quite bit these past 2 weeks. And my other friend who goes with me to the shows, well, she has shown her true colors as well. Thank God she wasn't my support angel. She pawned me off on her mother to give me a ride home the other night, when she lives very close to me. That just upsets me.

 

Well anyway, my weight loss of 43 pounds has been maintained over the past week, and possibly down another pound or two. I have my first doctor's appointment since my surgery tomorrow morning. We will see what their scales say. I have actually done great on the full liquids, and have actually gone on to soft foods. I have been careful to not eat too much, or too fast. So far, I haven't had an upset stomach, and I haven't thrown up at all yet. Things have actually gone quite well. If anyone has anything thing to say about this, please let me know. Be honest.

 

Well, once again sorry that I haven't been on here too much. I shall always strive to do better. Thanx for the kick Teresita!

 

Also, please keep our friend Leigh in your prayers. She is haven't quite a rough time, and she went in today for surgery. They were either going to just unbuckle the band, or remove it. Not sure which. I am going to try to call her tomorrow and find out how she is doing.

Take care, love ya all!

Doug you are doing great, 43 pounds is awesome. Utilize this time well, while you are afraid to eat. Keep your carbs low and get in your protein. Remember sugarfree popsicles and fudgesicles are great.

Tell Leigh that Abraham has ....... that should make her feel better.
