389 Want To Lose 60 Pre Op
Hi! 389 was my starting weight too.... Get on myfitnesspal and set your calorie max to 2500 or lower (that's where I started and moved down to 1700 every 2 weeks). I also exercised 4 days a week for 30 min just walked on treadmill and did biggest loser dvd walking video. No soda and drink 64 oz of water daily. I lost 30 lbs.

First Food Day Fail
- First Food Day Fail
So Im able to eat anything now (but red meat and bread, pasta, & tortilla) I ate chicken for dinner and I obviously didn't chew enough I threw it up it took 3 up chucks to get the 3 pieces up. It wasn't as bad as I thought to get the food out, but now I'm scared! I called it quits and am having soup for dinner.... Safe! Failed first day. Maybe I was just to excited to eat food/chew!- This Will Be A Long Night...
Can you stay in a hotel tonight with the kids?- Update
