Got on the scale today- can offically say that I have lost 80 lbs! This is from a starting date of Sept 15 (per-op diet for lap band- changed mind- THANK YOU LORD!) and surgery on Nov. 17th. I have to admit there was a week or two where I was thinking- what the heck did I do! But now I can eat what looks good and everything is in moderation and I feel so good! For those of you thinking- Man, I only have to lose 80 lbs- keep in mind that I have so much to lose. My goal is to l...

Doing well- feeling more and more like me. I am so close to being able to say that I have lost 80 lbs already! I love that when ever I get on the scale it is either going down or staying the same- no weight gain!

Hello Jane!

The day of surgery, as I was waking up my husband is standing over my bed. He says "Honey, everything went fine but I have some bad news." I turn to look at him and he says, "They Surgury went well but they had to remove 85% of your stomach" I said "hmpf". and went back to sleep. I was just thinking of this today and it made me laugh. So happy to have him and so glad he is so supportive!

Thanks for checking on me! Went back for follow up today and got drain out. I was so afraid but it didn't hurt. Still can't walk very well due to pain in abs but it is getting better! I found out that I have lost 4 BMI points since Sept! Almost 40 lbs!! : ) How are you?

I am home! I wanted to stay another night at the hospital, worried that I will mess something up, I guess we will see!

Hey KC! You have lost oer 100lbs! WOW! I can't wait until I can say that! I have lost 29 lbs since Sept. I can't wait to continue to see it drop off! Surgery is Wednesday.. wish me luck!

Hello!

I can't eat after midnight so I am going to try to have a shake right before bed just to give me a little something to keep me going tomorrow without feeling to bad. Happy to be getting this out of the way and that much closer to surgery!

I didn't do very well on my pre-diet today.. just couldn't do the shake today. When I wrote down all that I did have I ended up with 968 cals, 33 grams of fat, 132 grams of carbs (stupid sprite zero- NEVER AGAIN) and only 33 grams of protein. I have the GNC shakes as well but I caught a flu bug over the weekend and my stomach is still a little upset.
