Hopey

I have lost 115 pounds since I began this journey!! I'm incredibly happy! I exercise and mostly eat right. I slip now and then, but I get up and keep going! Here's my blog describing this journey: http://hopeysnewbeginning.blogspot.com

Jan. 22: 276 pounds June 3: 201 pounds I'm so incredibly happily!!!!!

Jan 22, 2013 I weighed 270. March 26, 2013 I weigh 235 now.

Hi!! My recovery isn't bad. Yours? I just am anxious to get this body in shape now! Two of my incisions hurt, and besides gas or whatever I'm going through right now it hasn't been bad. I'm on full liquids until Tuesday. I hate the protein shakes, and I'm ready for food! I'm down a total of 29 pounds since I started all of this. What is your diet?

By the way, I was sleeved Jan 22nd.

Gas x strip? Maybe I'll send my hubby to the store for that. I knew straws were a big no no. It completely went out of my mind when I went to Smoothie King to check out their low carb protein shakes.

I don't know if this has anything to do with my current problem, but I forgot and used a straw last night. So my current problem is every sip I take of water or a protein drink is uncomfortable. It seems to hurt a little and my head hurts then too. Now I feel like I have a lump in my throat. Before this I had no problems. Just sore from my surgery. Thoughts?

You've been on my mind. Thank you so much for updating us. I hope you heal quickly, and soon you won't be in pain. Hugs to you! Hope

You will be on my mind. I hope they work it out soon!!!

The head hunger is really difficult. I'm wanting to eat emotionally.

I'm a week out after my surgery. I've lost seven pounds. I'm not hungry, but I'm craving real food!! I've had friends bring over food for my family. I imagine myself picking up that piece of chicken and ravishing it! The protein shakes are grossing me out, because it takes me so long to drink them. I'm finding myself wanting food food food! I don't plan on eating horribly, but the deep dish pizza my husband was eating earlier was driving me crazy. I want to make healthy food and eat it, but right now I get cranky when I see any food. Does anyone else have this problem?

I have six sites. One of mine is infected. I'm on strong antibiotics! http://hopeysnewbeginning.blogspot.com/2013/01/gas-gas-glorious-gas.html?m=1
