Seeing how I am like 10 hours ahead of CA time...I decided to post this now before you wake up =9. I am holding you in my prayers that your nerves settle, for the surgeons hands to be precise, for your recovery to be quick, and most of all for you to finally be where you want with your weight. Be well, my friend...I look forward to your updates. Peace, Rob

I have just spent the last hour settling myself into my account at OH. Thanks for everyone who suggested I go there. I just love resources. =) Hope that Loser and youknowit are doing well after their recent surgery. Take care you all I will be checking in on ya!

Hope you are healing well.

Everything went well, until I got home and tried crushing my multivitamin. I threw up, something I tried very hard not to do. Oh well, I learned not to do that. I am down 4.5kgs this week already - like 10lbs!

Hey Tiff!!!! You look great in your pics!! WTG! I cannot wait to look so good =D Well, not in a dress HAHA! Anyway, just came by to say THANK YOU for being an AWESOME friend and support. Rob

Hey Linda, it has been awhile since we chatted. How are things going? I am one week out now from surgery and feeling pretty good. Just stopping by to say HI!

Hope you are fairing well Tiff. Prayers and positivity sent your way. =) Hope you heal lightening fast!

Hey DeeDee, nice new pic =) Remember to post when you have put that final pound to rest. I am rooting for ya!!!

Been gone for a bit, but plan on being here at least 3 times a week for research, support, encoragement, and just plain keeping in touch!

Congrats on your pregnancy Tiff! I have been gone for awhile but am planning on being around more now.

Well the BIG DAY is nearing. How you feeling? I was amazingly calm. I was lucky to have the hospital room totally alone. I wish you well, prayers for you before, during, and after.

Hey Christie! I am doing well 1 week out. 13lbs down this week and I am finally getting in all my fluids. I am not timing my meals just yet, because I am trying to get the protein in as well LOL! I do get at least 5 in during my liquid stages in form of protein shakes and soups. I am getting stronger daily. Like I said, I wish you the absolute BEST!! See ya on the lesser side of you =D

Gonna start 2011 right.

Hey there!! Thnaks for the friend request! How is it going?

Just to update you all. I am doing well and losing weight pre-op. I am looking forward to my sleeve and have started thinking about it again. Give me some updates if you come by. Peace and love =)

Thanks Barb!! I decided I would do more focus on soups and water. I found out that mushroom soup is high in protein, and I love it. I get in a milkshake or two each day, and I like them, so no biggie there. Just wanna do it right, ya know?

Hey Barb, just wondering how you are doing? How goes the diet and weight loss? Holding you in my prayers. Rob

Hey youknowit!! How is everything going? I have kept myself busy and distracted while waiting for my sleeve. Let me know how you are doing. =)

Hey there, was wondering what the protein powder you found was called? I will be visiting the USA in April and I thought about buying some supplies there so it isn't so costly. Here one protein drink(bottle) costs like 5 dollars. I think they said I could get 3 "meals" out of it.

Thanks for the share. I will check it out when I am out there.

Hey Barb, I so needed to hear you say that to me, because I have been debating this surgery this past week. I will be in Colorado from the 10th to the 29th of April. I am so excited!

Hey there! You got a pic up! YAY! I have only pictured you as a dancing doll =) I had gone up and down with this decision - especially this past week, but now I made my decision and am not backing down. My boss, who is an avid traininer, has been trying to sway me from getting it done, but she doesn't know all that I had gone through this past 5 years. I am looking forward to this surgery now, and am trying my best to prepare my head for it. Your words are kinda and encouraging. Thank you so so much! I am so glad that you are doing good!!

Hey man, welcome to the Forum. So, when was your surgery date? I see you have lost a lot already. I am now down 20lbs 2 weeks post op =D

Hey there, I am so so glad to hear you made it through all of it ok. I take Somac 20 mgs...curious if it will be crushable. I need to ask. HEY, I got my DATE...finally. LOL...I am so impatient. My Sleeve is on May 7th. About a week after I get back from my visit to the USA. Otherwise I am down in weight and eating a lot less and reducing introducing myself to various new foods hehe.

Hey Barb!! Nice pic =) I just got back to Norway and had a extremely busy schedule in Colorado. LOL...ya you heard me a schedule on vacation. I am SO SORRY I did not get to meet you. That would have made my day. I had nearly no internet action the whole time. I am going under the knife next Monday. Gonna post a blog or something about it. It is crunch time and I am both nervous and excited. I already feel myself looking at food different. Again...I am so so very sorry I did not get to meet you in Colorado. Maybe next year. As for that storm, I had to pick up my wife in all the hail and tornado warnings from DIA. Fun.
