    Surgeons in North Carolina

    Dr Enoch is at the same office as mine! I used Dr Jon Michael Bruce. That office is amazing - Bariactric Specialists of NC are wonderful. Everyone has been very helpful. I enjoyed Patrick (nutritionist). I have an appointment in two weeks - I look forward to each visit. Dr Enoch is usually about 2 hours late though due to spending so much time with each patient.... Dr Bruce is usually on time - due to my lifestyle, I had to go with the easier of the two...
  3. heading out for a run - have a great Thursday!

    Half marathon

    I don't know much about plans... I am working with some people who have been running for a while... They have told me to run on Tues, Wed, Thurs,and Fri for 3-5 miles each day... take off Saturday and Monday... let Sundays be my long day and go one mile farther every Sunday... We will see - I am not convinced that I will be able to jog all of it, but I am going to aim for that... I am going to have to do some reading to find out how to prepare food and liquid-wise....

    The Benefits of Exercise

    I "fit" better in the car and in movie theaters - I am not embarrassed to go clothing shopping anymore and can shop in the regular stores... even bought size 10 jeans at GAP last week... My three kids are proud of me... and finally... I AM PROUD OF MYSELF!!!
  7. Go slow- stay busy- always be sipping on something.... But I'm four months out and have lost 50+ pounds.., at some point you will have to at least let them know about a new workout schedule you have... It will be obvious

    Jon Michael BRUCE of NC Bariactric Specialists did my Sleeve on August 9th of this year - I LOVE HIM - his office was great... I had my first appt with him on July 18, then three weeks later I had my surgery. I am almost five months out and have lost over 50 pounds - they have a great support group meeting once a month complete with clothing swaps and a nutrionist... I HIGHLY recommend this office

    Found a great snack yummy!

    I have found since surgery that I am not a big fan of sweets that do not have peanut butter... But I could kill for some slim jims! So, this snack looks amazing - will look for one tomorrow!!!

    4 MONTHS out - 53 pounds

    On Top of this wonderful new weight... in August I wore a size 22.... Today I was shopping with a friend, and I decided to just try on a pair of size 10's at the gap.... They zipped and buttoned - still tight, but at least I can see them in my future!!! So, I am now the owner of a pair of size TEN jeans!
  13. Went for a weigh in and labs yesterday into the doctor's office - I was 229 at my largest (non pregnant) weight... 220 this summer... YESTERDAY I WEIGHED IN AT 167!!!! this was how much I weighed the day I got married in 1993... So happy to have started this journey!
  14. did not drink enough today... ran a 5k this afternoon in just under 40 minutes... but did not drink.... trying to catch up right now - have a horrible headache... any ideas?
