    Hey Everyone, I have not been on in a while and just wanted to see how everyone else was doing! I have lost 50 pounds thus far and I will 3 months post-op tomorrow...Feeling good but still a work in progress. I am working hard. Next week I will be starting a couch to half marathon and looking forward to this! Well I want to wish everyone good luck on their journey!!!

    Today I have felt like and I have not gotten enough water I feel so dry and the bad part is I feel I can't drink it fast enough! I have been trying to sip sip sip and I feel as though I am not getting anywhere. I kinda drank down a little to fast and it is sitting in my chest at least it feels that a way!. To make matter even worse these dang stalls this is the first one and I don't like it...I'm 5 weeks out and the scale has been standing fast at 32lb weight loss, I am trying my hardest to get in the needed protein but the smell and not to mention the taste makes me nauseous...What to do? I know it is only the beginning...but I am ready to get this thing moving again!

    I hope that I am adding these blogs right! Let's see I am 5 days post-op and I think I am doing okay...all except I am missing food...I have not been hungry at ALL, but I want to eat with everyone else. Just missing everything that I could eat. I didn't think that this would be a problem but it is. You have to be very strong willed I see this now. Sometimes I regret the decision that I made but I know in my heart it was the best for me. My journey has began and I plan to make the best out of! Still trying to get in my needed liquids and today I am actually getting in the needed protein. I am very pleased to have the support of my hubby, he has been so support during this entire process. I'm just praying for a safe journey. Good luck to all the sleevers and future sleevers.

    Today I finished the last of my pre-op stuff...Last of the labs, my EKG, an anesthesiologist, paperwork completed and now I only need a time which I will find out on Friday! So excited! I have been doing really well on my 1000 cal diet which is second nature now...and have lost about 10 pounds so far! 4 days and a wake! Let the journey truly begin...so excited did I say that already! Good luck everyone!

    I started my pre-op diet today and I would have to say this was the hardest ever...trying to get all the protein and under the 1000 calories! Boy I tell you...I know this is day one and I am just getting started and hoping that it will come easy hopefully sooner than later! My husband is so awesome because he is counting those calories too, to ensure I am getting the right amount of everything! Gotta love him! Does anyone have a calorie counter that is accurate I am using two different ones to compare?
