I have my follow up tomorrow!!

DOS 12/27/12-240.00
TODAY-224.00
LOSS <16LBS>
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!!

OMYGeee...The day has finally come!!!! Heading to the hospital in an hour, my surgery is at 9:30am. After that, make room for me on the losers bench cause I've got a hot date with a thinner, healthier me!
I'm prepared, (I think) and excited, nervous, ready for it, but it does feel surreal.

2-weeks out 11lbs down according to his scale! Total weight lose since I started this journey 11/6/12 is 20lbs!
Was released to soft solids!! Was also ordered to start with my Vitamins and to start walking at least 20-30 minutes a day, until my next follow 2/7. I'll be released then to start "major" cardio according to him...lol...I'm excited!!!

Add me.. I need to start logging!!

Are we in church because I feel like jumping up and saying, "Amen!" I am grossed out by some of the things people eat. My BFF eats out for every meal and she's ALWAYS hungry. It bothered me before because its such a waste of money but now all I think about is how unhealthy it is. I wish she would eat before we hang out but of course not. We end up stopping and some fast food joint and I'm like "ick. No, thank you!"

I had the broth from home made caldo de res... Awesome....I felt like I was having to Soup with my family...I have my follow up Thursday...I can't wait to be advanced to pureed food...I'm looking forward to fat free refried Beans and mushed guacamole!! I miss my Mexican food...

Humor me.

BE SELFISH.
do it for you
you and you alone.
doing all of this for someone else makes it about someone else.
ALL OF THIS IS FOR YOU.

nothing pisses me off more - since I was a very young kid - feeling like I “needed” to loose weight for someone else...for society - for a certain clothing - for a “look” - for prom, for graduation, for college, for that job, the engagement, the wedding dress, the pictures, the honeymoon, the pregnancy, the kids, because the TV says I should, because PEOPLE Magazine says I should, all the time for someone or something else - I am doing this for ME...NOT for my husband...NOT for my kids...I’m doing this for ME...and me alone...this is year of ME. Sure they get the byproduct of my ME-NESS...and they get to enjoy the new ME but not for one second am I doing all of this for anyone but ME.

xoxo.
LOVE ME.

I can't wait to eat two ounces of something with substance!!
My results so far...I can only tell in my face...when I can tell in my body I'll post pictures!!

Oh Gosh I get all down, depressed & vow to thrown scale into my neighbor's backyard but then I log in here and see that I not the only one who feels like this!! I want to see changes in me, the scale and my clothes-- I feel like I should be losing it like Water and instead I feel like the people who know I've had it done are looking at me thinking ~ she had gastric and she still looks the same, it must not have worked for her ~ I don't want to FAiL!!!

Anyone else experiencing bad breath after surgery? I am, my mouth just tastes gross.

I'm not from Houston but I love reading these juicy conversations

Thanks ALL!! Patience has never been a virtue of mine. We all have to learn to breathe! :wub:

I am anxious to meet with the dr on the 17th! I want him to check me out and make sure everything is ok-- I am super concerned with the amounts I'm able to consume and I worry that I may have a leak but, if I had a leak I'd be sick (I think) anyways I just want him to reassure me that I'm fine and if I'm NOT, I wanna be fixed!

Yes, 10-20... I've lost 60lbs by myself and was Down to a 14-12...My sister also gave me a bunch of her 10-12 jeans while I was losing weight about 4years ago...
It really is more important for women/girls to watch their weight. It worries me because she's at the age I was when I started gaining weight. I don't want her to be over weight... I know how horrible kids can be!

I'm having that problem....I'm also putting that pressure on myself... My sister just sent me this...

Yup...still liquids...I go pureed Friday!! Like today I had think & creamy Soup and I'm still tasting it. Ugh.. I'm ready for substance and crunchy!!
Yay...it is small! My 7year old weighs 87lbs! That's another thing.. I didn't realize how much and how often my beautiful daughter was eating! Right now we're arguing because she wants takis..and I won't let her have them. I didn't realize that I was setting her up to follow in my footsteps!
I have lots and lots of jeans in sizes 10-20!! LOL...I don't want to weigh 100lbs... I'm afraid of what I might look like!
