Soon to be me

What an amazing testimonial! Thank you for sharing your success,.you and your daughter are absolutely gorgeous!

You look GREAT girl! Keep it up. How are you feeling? do you have any NSV (non scale victories) The day i discovered i have collar bones was sensational!! lol

GOOD JOB!! Its so exciting to see how much you have transformed. I wish I would have taken more pictures before...Cant wait to see yours!

:n D Yay for finding someone to go through it with!!! Are you in school too?? Im in school, work nights, have two small kids, so its been hard to get the exercise in. I"ve been doing something 1-2 times per week. I work in an ER so im on my feet all night, and RUNNING around like a mad man the whole 12 hour shift. Outside of that. I have done videos..kettle bells, Jillian Micheals 30 day shread..i took a five mile bike ride once..and quickly learned that my knee injury didnt disappear, it just isnt CONSTANTLY under stress, like it was 60 heavier. But yeah, the past month or so, its a lb here a lb there. maybe nothing for a week..like this past week. What was your start weight? what was your daughters? Im 28 and in the same boat as you. So maybe, if she had more to lose, is why she is getting results faster?

Your doing awesome chick! I look forward to your blogs each week...We are only a week apart in surgery dates, so Its exciting to me to see where you are, in numbers and emotions<3

CONGRATS!!!! You look, and sure do sound like you FEEL, amazing! You look like a completely different person! Thank you for sharing your success..

Good luck! I will say a prayer for you! <3 Some people wake up feeling great..I was not so lucky, and said multiple times "what did i do to myself?" If that thought (and i pray it does not) comes to your mind..please intercept it with the FACT that it is SOOO worth it! Nothing worth having is easy to earn!

This is the BEST blog I have ever read! Amazingly well said! <3

Each Surgeon seems to have different guidelines...I was suppose to wait until one week post-op...AFTER I saw the doctor in his office. It was all broth and jello for that week for me. Im four weeks out, and still have trouble getting the protein down. Its So filling.. Its really time consuming..lol. I was able to Chug the on the pre-op diet!

Sounds exactly like me...I'm trying to work up the nerve to have my husband hide mine. All the weighing certainly isn't helping me..Good Luck!

Thanks guys. I should remove my scale..I'm obsessed. I get so upset..It's not as if it is doing me any good. I hope you all are right, and it works..I'm petrified.

Thanks guys! Its hard not to let it get you down..but I'm gonna try to keep my head up, and listen to PDxMan! Perhaps i will stop weighing myself every stinkin day too! :n X

It does make sense! I think most of us feel that way...I sure did. Im 8 days post op, and am down 12.2lbs! and guess what? Im still worried it wont work!! Lol, it sonds crazy, but its my truest emotion right now. Outside of the fustration I have with wanting to eat things around me, though I physically can not. Its a hard transititon...but it will work! Try to stay positive!!

Yes! we will most sertainly have to keep up with each other! Im pretty much with out gas pain now, but i have read about some people taking gas x. Id check with the doc first though. Oh man, i keep getting rumbling in my lower stomach..BOY, can that be surprsing..in the way or "leakage" or how ever the correct way of saying sharting..lol! I dont know if that what you mean, but thats where i am!! haha! Hope your feeling better today! today is def better than yesterday for me! <3

your surgery date is going to sneak up on you QUICK! dont beat yourself u about not making the changes yet..First, its your frame of mind that matters. it might even take after another appoinment with the Dietician. You'll find yourslef looking at thing differently while shopping, or browsing your cabinets. The change takes time! I took me about six months as well, and i was sleeved on the 19th, just a fe days ago..and im telling you, it flew by!! You will get cuaght up in the day to day grind, and the next thing you know, youll be laying in your bed going, "I can't BELIEVE its tomorrow!" Keep your head up love!
