greyeyedslim got a reaction from nikkiilynn in African American RNY Sisters
Excited to find an AA gastric thread!
Location: Orlando, FL
Surgery Date: 6/26/14, 10 days post-op
Height: 5'10
HW: 288 lbs
SW: 279 lbs
CW: 265.2 lbs
GW: 153 lbs
I'm looking forward to looking outwardly as I feel inwardly and learning how to take care of me instead of hiding by taking care of others.
I have a tough time drinking 64 oz of liquid a day so far. My Breakfast shake goes well into lunch before I'm finished. Unsweetened applesauce and sugar free Popsicles help take off the pressure and count as Fluid, especially in Fl.
I wanted to do something special for my 40th birthday, taking control of my weight was it.
Kudos to you for making the decision as well, we deserve to be healthy and happy.
Claiming the name greyeyedslim, hopefully with the body to match in a few months.

greyeyedslim got a reaction from Dawnakers in 3 days out of surgery
This is my 4th day and I have a bit more energy today. I'm tired of phase 1 liquid only, but l know it's worth it and I'll make it. sugar free Popsicles are my best friend now. Trying to wean off of the pain meds so I can get around in my own, but it's hard with 6 stab wounds in your abdomen and a G-tube hanging from your tummy. Overall, I'm excited with the changes to come...hope you guys are too
