  1. Yay 238 today at doctor! I'm in the 230s ???? when I started in March I was 278!
  2. Way to go!!! Hope to be in the 230s by sat ???? so excited to actually say that!
  3. So I have been weighing myself daily and I am losing a lb a day! I was 248 before I had the surgery and before I started the diet and today I weighed in at 241! ???? go back to the doctor tomorrow!
  4. So glad to see you guys posting again! ???? I have been drinking seems like all day on shakes so I took a stop an drank some broth yum it was so good I made it from bullion beef it was super good! Mia I hope you get to feeling better with the nausea I know how you feel I was the same way at first! That's why they kept me an extra night! They didn't give you anything for it?
  5. Ok guys on night 3 soreness is starting to break reality has set in and now can't wit to see results!! How is everyone doing with the post op diet? I found muscle milk is great! It taste awesome too! Chocolate that you mix yourself has a nutty flavor the banana is my all time favorite! It's light and just delish strawberry and cream is pretty good too! I am literally having to drink all day though to get in my 70-100g of protein and 64oz of fluids. Had to take gas x today the gas was rumbling horrible my chest was hurting so bad because of it! Wondering too how well these six spots are going to heal up.... Still on pain meds to be safe hope to come off those by Wednesday though???? have to say I am doing pretty good! Hope all of you all are too!
  6. Oh yeah I agree!!! The gas is starting to break up today
  7. That's good to hear! I had to eat the protein on my tray it wasn't too bad I chased it with water or tea! Then had 3 spoonfuls of broth and my tea and I was full!! Honestly I really want hungry to begin with! Just have had the worst cotton mouth from all the meds I have been on! I'm glad your doing so well! I am waiting on doctor here too I should be going home today yay! I just showered iv is out and I have my own clothes on!
  8. Well I am feeling better today not as sore as yesterday and the nausea is gone ???? just still super tired but think that's the meds will be glad to go home!!! Which will be sometime today!!! I have six spots on my belly how many do you all have?
  9. I am so sore and tired they kept me an extra night because of nausea. Hope tomorrow I feel better I am walking about every hour thanks to my husband! It helps a lot release the gas and make sure I don't get blood clots!

  11. Good luck tomorrow friends our new journey will start soon! I pray everyone has a safe day tomorrow! Update when you can!
  12. Thanks yes mine have always had chores!! And I agree with Mia be an example maybe your friend will change their ways of not then you have to do for you! You don't want to break what you have worked so hard for and if they can't understand that then they aren't truly your friend.... Sorry your having to go through that! It is hard my kids eat a little different than what I do sometimes as well because well they are kids but they have enough respect for me to go in another room!
  13. I'm packed I packed for me and my husband enough for 2 days just incase ???? now I'm getting my house ready finishing laundry(which with 5 kids is never ending) and cleaning everything so it will be ready for me when I come home, the 14 yr old has helped tremendously with that!!!
  14. They told me I would be released the next day as long as I was doing well, they do a test to check for leaks and we have to drink so much protein then we can go
