sleeve 4 me

Whoo hoo! You look great!

188 and I feel great

That's awesome! I would have loved 2 more weeks off to exercise without trying to fit it in . Take it and run lol!!!

Yayyyyy for you

OMGOSH! 41 lbs. gone! WOW YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy for you!

Yayyyy what a feeling

What size sleeve did you have done?

I will be thinking of you and saying a prayer as well hugs!!

Got it! And it was only $1.98 a box at Ralphs. I will add some banana to it as well. I'm going to take a box to work tomorrow

YES rest is a big part of the healing process. I didn't drive until 2 weeks after my surgery and continued to rest the next 2 weeks after that. It really really helped me. I'm finally going back to work tomorrow after 4 weeks off. I'm feeling really good.

Love it! You are AMAZING! Thanks so much for posting! You are such an inspiration to all of us !!!! YOU GO GIRL!!!

Thanks girlies

Awesome news I'm so happy for you

One thing I've learned on this journey is not to be too hard on myself. I had my list of things to do post surgery (get in protein, water, vitamins, etc.) and wanted to be the perfect patient and just couldn't do it. I was so hard on myself, and it was depressing. Our bodies are adjusting and eventually we will be able to drink and eat more with each new day. So now I'm taking it one day at a time So take this time to rest and heal I know WE WILL get there!

sounds super good thanks

Thanks my sista's hugs!!!

Beautiful post! Beautiful you :thumbup1:

Yayyy my friend! I'm soo happpy for you! We're back to work on Monday : )

I hit 189 today ...I haven't been in the 80's since 2004. I know I still have a ways to go, but feels good :biggrin0:

Hahahahaha! Girrrrl believe me I tried but it hurt too much, I was literally crying and praying and pushing (funny now, but NOT then) and BAM finally came out LOL...I'm NOT GOING THROUGH THAT AGAIN. I'm not going to STRESS myself out with all the Protein seriously. I've gotta add Fiber everyday from now on. I've been eating oatmeal and fruit, and I'm gonna try that orange juice and prune juice mix too .

The first days were terrible for me. Every day gets better. By day 14 I was feeling great ...

That is so awesome! Great job! I hope to be where you are in 3 months

Yayyyy! Any day now :thumbup1:. You're doing so awesome! Congrats!

OK y'all we met and had a wonderful time...we are planning on meeting again on Saturday, October 16th at 10am, let me know if you can make it :thumbup:

I took 4 weeks off, and I'm so glad I did!
