I everyone! Had surgery March 5th and today's weigh in....100lbs lost! I feel great!

I haven't been active for awhile since surgery. It's been 3 months since surgery on 3/5/13 and so far I've lost 65lbs and feel great!
Sometimes I can't believe it I went through with it and how I'm slowly getting to my weight goal.

I just had a Jay Robb vanilla Protein Shake, picked up a few samples and did a banana delight shake using a 1/2 frozen banana and instead of Water I used unsweetened almond milk....yuuumy!!
Tomorrow will be strawberry Cheesecake. He has some good recipes in his website.
The only problem I had was that it was a little to thick. Should I add less milk or less powder?

I'm finally home. I spent 3 days in the hospital due to pain, nausea and couldn't drink all my liquids.
I don't have pain anymore but I sure do recommend a pillow for the ride home, every time we hit a bump it was an ouch!
It's difficult to drink all my liquids, I can only have sf Jello, crystal light, broth and Protein drinks. Tomorrow will go up to full liquids. I just have to make sure I drink enough liquids so I won't dehydrate since my blood level is low.
I also came home with a lot of phlegm, mucous and cough, when I cough it hurts so I'm making sure I use my spirometer given at the hospital.
All in all in went well, I'm feeling much better today, just of course hungry. I need to start walking, walking and walking.
Congrats to all who have crossed over to the losers bench side

haha! my surgeon and nutritionist were foxy dudes too!..glad you're feeling better.

Good luck to all of today's surgeries!
As for me, no more morephin, horrible chest pain and getting ready for UGI. Catheter is out(thank god).
Feeling a little tummy discomfort(5incisions) but its the chest pain that is bothering.
Slept like a baby last night but that was due to the pain meds, unfortunately no more today

Hi everyone, came out of surgery and into my room around 5:30pm. Just did my first walk and over did it and in lots of pain, got my dose of morphine and falling asleep. Nursing staff has been awesome! Tomorrow is my ugi, I will keep everyone posted.

Well only slept a couple of hours, have my bag packed, showered & washed my hair but....I'm soooo hungry! lol
Have to be at the hospital by 11am(will try for earlier) and I can't believe the day is finally here.
I am praying for everything to go smoothly.
Will keep everyone posted as soon as I'm ok.

Thanks everyone. Just got back from a little retail therapy for needed supplies. I'm tired, nervous but anxious about tomorrow.
My new life begins soon

Just got the call confirming time, at 11am.
Wish it were a little earlier but I'm ok with it, just very nervous....I don't think I'll sleep tonight.
Good luck to the surgeries tomorrow too!

I cheated and I feel awful. I am on my 5th day pre op Optifast liquid diet, was doing great, lost 9lbs and I went and cheated at Sweet Tomatoes Restaurant.
I ate a salad and a cup of Soup.< /p>
To top it off, I think I'm getting a cold, sore throat and sinus!
Surgery is on 3/5 and I'm hoping when I go in for final weigh on 3/1, I'm ok.
