As of today I'm down 30 lbs!! I'm now at 255!

I mix my body by vi with orange juice some times and it makes it taste like a dreamsicle.

I mix mine with oj too and sometimes a lil vanilla extract. So good

Body by vi is the best I've had so far, It's the only one that I have never had to gag down. My best friend sells it and you can get it here: http://spencerhealth.bodybyvi.com

It's definitely worth getting!

I had my surgery on July 5th 2012. It was the best thing I ever did. I have gone from a size 22 to a 14 so far and I feel great! We can support each other:). Btw if you're a book reader I have started a book club that will be starting on the 13. You should join us! Let me know and I can send you the details

That's awesome! I can definitely use some support. Last week was really rough. I would love more details on the book club!

Hope you get better girl!! Sad u had all those complications

Thank you. Feeling much better today finally!

Today needs to double time bc tomorrow It's back to reality and work for me. Oh boy..

Hey how are u doing

Hi. I'm doing better today. It was a rough week for me. I've been struggling with really bad back pain and I've never had back pain prior to surgery. And also I had to wear a breathing monitor bc of the pain Med I was on in the hospital. Its just like the oxygen tube that goes in your nose but this also has a flap that covers a bit of your mouth. Not sure if anyone else had this. Well I ended up being allergic to it or something Bc my upper lip swelled to twice It's size and blistered. Ugh. It's feeling much better today but I've just been dealing with pain this week. Telling myself everyday that tomorrow will be better.. today is the first day I've really believed it tho.. Lol.

Thanks for checking in on me!

Monroe is so close me! I'm in Mason! Who's your doctor? I used Dr. Trace Curry and my husband is having his sleeve done on the 11th. Great office.

Good luck to you and your new self

HI!

Thank you! When was your surgery?

I used Dr. Dahman he works out at Mercy hospital in Fairfield. I really like him alot.

Good luck to your husband!

Getting ready to leave the hospital. I'm looking forward to getting some uninterrupted sleep!

I'm asking to switch pain meds. Itching is driving me nuts! Lol. I'm supposed to be Leaving tonight

I'm doing really good. Just super exhausted.. No pain! Although I'm really itchy from being slightly allergic to the pain med

Lol I still have to pack my bag too

Yayy!! I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight! Lol

I have to shower with anti bacterial soap

I wanna do something fun as well I just don't know yet. Realization sinked in last night I had second doubts for a sec.

I understand that completely. My tummy has felt in knots all day. I think I'm 50/50 excited and nervous

Is anyone doing anything special or fun this weekend? I'm going to spend the day with my 6 year old son. Give him a special fun filled day since I feel like I will be in recoup mode for awhile. We are going to the childrens museum and anything else he can think of.

Tell me about the diet!! Ugh I cheated last night and ate some popcorn I felt disgusted

On another note I did my final weigh in today and came in at 276 from 296 dec 31st.

Awww..

I didn't have a final weigh in but I am pretty sure you're doing better than me! That's awesome!

I thought I'd be in and out the next day too until my surgeon said different. Prayers your way for a speedy recovery. Are you on any pre op diets?

My surgeon said the next day. I was hoping to stay longer tho..

I am on a 2 week pre op diet that hasn't been much fun.

This has been the longest week ever.. lol

2/25 here too first case will be in hospital for 2 1/2 days my surgeon is removing my gallbladder as well

I'm having my gallbladder removed as well. But Ill be Leaving the hospital the following evening as long as everything is well

IKEA is crazy.. I've been twice and I will not go again Lol but if you ever want to hit up the outlet mall I'm in lol

Cool! I'm excited but nervous!! Having a hard time with Protein preop there all yuckies! Lol

I feel you there! I've found one that's tolerable for me so far. I'm using the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury strawberry flavor and I'm mixing it with Water and crystal light lemonade mix. It's pretty good.
