  1. Weight loss has slowed 3 months post op but I knew that would happen. Realistic expectations means I'm content with the progress as long as it's progress. Hooray for Meeeee.

  2. Wow, glad that I have the energy to do things now....mowing, trimming, digging holes, cleaning out the flower beds, etc. But it's all good.

    Hi all, Vance here. I had my op on 3/8/2011 by Dr. Nicholson at Forest Park Medical Center in Dallas. This is a great doc and super facility. Nothing but praise for them. I'm doing great with 54 lbs lost so far and lots more energy. Now I'm enjoying the summer, swimming and doing a lot of yard work. Now I've got a lot of projects that I had been putting off for years that I feel like working on. Vance
  4. Sunshine, blue skies. Hitting the swimming pool this afternoon.

    Well, here I am...

    Welcome Chuck, Good to see everything is going great for you. This is a step that you will not regret taking. There will be low spots but hang in there. It's not just about the weight you will lose, it is the energy to do things now, fewer or no meds, self-confidence and knowing you will be healthier and more active to do the things you want to do. The folks here are great and helpful and will answer any question you might have. Very good support group. Vance
  6. Hello Summer and time to work on all those projects now that I finally feel like getting up and moving!

    Hey Tina...good talking to you!

  9. 6 week Dr appt in the morning. 40 lbs down so it is a good start.

  10. Starting to eat normal food again. I just have to know when to stop before I get the "thump" feeling.

  11. This week has been a long one with all the activities but going great. I have my 2 week post-op Dr. appointment in the morning.

  12. How is it going? Hope everything went well.

  13. I hope I can keep at the liquid protein stuff. After 2 weeks, the stuff is getting old

  14. Had a blast with grandkids today

  15. Getting ready to go back to work on Monday.
