Good for you keep it going!!! You are a motivator for me and I am sure many more. Your daughter will be so surprised and happy with you.

Hi again. I am finally learning to get around this site. How are you doing? Wow tomorrow a week. I can't wait for a year. Today I went out for a while with my husband and I got kind a week and a little dizzy.(normal for me) so when we got home I went to lay down and slept for 3 Hours. It guess every thing is catching up with me. I feel great tonight but hungery. Hope I can sleep. Every day I try to walk a little more. But I haven't pushed it yet. Have you got on the scales yet? I was told by my Dr. team not to for a week but I couldn't wait I am down 17 lbs. I am so happy and tomorrow my husb. Mike is going to take my measurements. We will have to get together some time in the future. We just moved to AZ a year ago from So Cal. we have 3 kids in Orange Co. , In fact I have 2 boys really close to where you are they are in San Clemente. I don't know for sure just when we plan to go again but will let you know for sure it will be when we are on some kinda solids. We can split a lunch. lol That's being real buddies I just noticed your weight loss ticker how cool I need to add one. Looks Like we are close I went into surgery at 207. This should be fun to see what happens. How were you told to do your protien? I think I am not doing mine right because I am hungery. I have been having a 25 gram shake in the morning and a nother about 4 pm. in between I have small amounts of jello and small like 2 oz of broth. The nurse said to have 3 shakes so I guess I will try that. I hate them but better then liquid protien. Hugs to you keep up the good work. Denna

Hi, I would love to have you as a buddie. I hope everything is going smooth for you on this new life we have chosen. How exciting to think of our future. I also had my VSG on the 26th. South West Medial Center in Tucson. I had a small amount of gas pain and some times when I swallow liquids it feels like a lump in my chest ,I guess it's air , I keep swallowing and it passes. I had my surgery at 7:30 wed and came home friday. I have slept a lot. I can't get the Purfect down and my system the Dr. said was doing well so he said I could go right on the shakes. Today I am hungery !!! Have you gotten to that point yet? I hate the shakes also but manage to get them down. Before the surgery they were tolerble now it's hard. Like I said today I am hungery.:mad: Probably in my brain not my fat belly. lol We can do it!!!:thumbup: Good luck and keep intouch.
