    And here it starts!

    I am a month out today and was weighed for month f/up..lost 26 lbs since surgery..I AM GEEKED! I have lost this much weight in my 20yr serious weight struggle..It is slow and I stalled for a week (body holding to pureed phase..I guess)...But never the less I have lost inches and a pants size.. Who does that!!We do!! No worried ..we will go thru our stalls while our bodies adjust (doctor says)..yo are doing great with the walking..just wait til you add cardio..I'm proud of you and your hussle!!!! Keep it up!!!

    Sodas

    They say for the first 6 months to not drink it, but three nutritionist, who was very down to earth said..we are all human n it you set it out to get flat then have your taste..who wants to do that..They are just fearful of the air bubbles in your stomach could be painful n produce extra acids( uncomfortable feeling)...you may not want it as much as you think you do....We'll get through this..I loved my mountain dews but not as much crave since the Nov 9th sleeve..Good luck on your journey!!!

    Do I tell or say nothing.

    Yes like Lamar said..your business..everybody can't handle your business..smh..I told 2 coworkers before I went out and one kept bringing up weight stuff ..I told her I never discussed being big at work so don't question me getting small at work..I think she was resentful that I went thru with it when she was suppose to take the journey with me n bailed...good luck on your surgery n just worry about getting healthy.
