Hey Sister Sleeve! How are things going with you? I had two periods of no weight loss and wow - it was tough getting past those points. I'm down 49.8 and feeling so much better but there are a few little changes in the past month. I get hungry - really after 3 hours and no food. And - my stomach growls - which didn't happen at all the first two months. Oh well - I never think about my weight like I used to - I know it will come off and just keep doing what I'm doing. Love you kiddo - Reb

4.5 weeks out and I'm feeling great - eating whatever - just not much at one sitting. I am so happy I had this done!

2.5 weeks post-op and all is well! I've been back to work for the past week and I'm still not caught up. Fall is crazy busy for Human Resources - open enrollment and all that jazz! I've been eating soft foods and no bread products - fish, cheese and yogurt. No mushy stuff for me! I can only eat a little bit - but I'm not suffering at all!

One week post-op and I feel great - down 17 pounds in past 11 days (counting 3 days all liquids). Going back to work Monday - I could today but heck - it's Friday and "I deserve a break today - so get up and get away from McDonalds!" No more FF for me.!

I blogged about the whole Tiajuana thing under Gardendiva3's blogs. It's a 2-parter but it will help anyone going into "the zone". I feel great today (4 days post) and will take it easy at home this week - and start planning for next week's meal ideas. I decided since it is important to track how much protein and fluids I am getting that I would create an easy food diary in a little journal. It will help me see where the good loses occur.

Christy - I blogged about the logistics at Jerusalem clinic and Recovery House. Go to Gardendiva3's blog and read it so you know what to expect about the area etc.

Best wishes to WISHES and CoffeBean and HollyB and WannaGetHealthy as they travel to their respective surgery locations! I'll be thinking of you...and preparing for my flight tomorrow!!!

Today is my second succesful day on liquids... thank goodness my surgery is Friday. I'm hoping I don't keel over in the airport. I found out some interesting stuff today about protein. I did not realize that some proteins are for weight loss and some for muscles and some for bariatric patients!! Good thin GNC is just a block away.

Hey - I just found the best 10 minute walk through of jerusalem Hospital in TJ. Check this out.

7 DAYS TO GO - I've made my packing list - thankyou very much sleeve-sisters. I received some samples of Chike protein powder and will try my first one tomorrow morning. Also a few packets from the VitaminLady. Thanks to whomever posted the "get your samples" on VST. Gem & Holly - let's ROCK!!!

Remember when I said I was starting my all liquid diet? I sure hope that Snickers Milk Shake counts!
