How is everyone doing? I am so excited that I am down 30 lbs. I weighed in at 173 yesterday, and the day before my surgery I was at 203. I hope everyone else is having such good results, It would be great to hear from everyone.

toasted puppy is Scott, I wonder how he is doing?

Sorry it took me so long to get back with you, we went to Alaska fishing for a week, and its been crazy since we got back, I got on the scale on monday and I am down 30 lbs. YEAH I weight 173.8 and my goal is 145-150. I'm so excited. I'm going to have to go shopping for pants!! Sounds like you are doing awesome and I am so happy for you. I drink my Protein Shake every morning and then eat normally rest of day, I dont find myself hungry and I am doing great. So glad to hear from you!!

Good morning, and let me tell you it is a good morning. Just got on the scales and am down 22 lbs. with 39 to go. I can fit back into my smallest jeans I had when I lost my weight on my lap band and am 7 lbs away from my lowest weight on the band. Once I got past the rash, this has been the easiest process ever. I did both of my county fairs and have just now caught up on my sleep. Its time to start exercising, as I was unable to walk these last two and a half weeks. Today I start my two miles a day again. How is everyone else doing? Sorry I havent been communicating lately? lets hear from everyone. I think of all of you often.

Ok everyone, how is it going? What are you eating? are you losing? are you walking?

lets hear from everyone...

Hey Melissa, how is it going. I bought the whey Protein variety pack to try some flavors. I really like the cappucino. but I use the costco Premier Protein drinks 30 g protein in one they come in chocolate or vanilla, I add a banana or peach to them in the blender and one ice club. Delicious. Try Starbucks chocolate Protein Drinks. yummy. You've lost alot of weight. How is your family, did you get moved.

Well on Friday I started to itch a bit under my right breast and by Saturday afternoon I had a full blown rash under both breasts, after much research and speaking with Melissa we decided I had a allergic reaction to the Cipro, I have been miserable itching like crazy. I had a heat rash once before and it is 10 times more irritating. Found some Predisone in the medicine cabinet and have taken two today and the itching is better. Still there though and the rash is huge. it said on the internet it takes 7-10 to develop an allergic reaction to antibiotics and they were right. Hopefully by tonight I will be able to sleep, its been so painful I havent been sleeping or putting on many clothes. As far as my VSG, things are going great.... down 10 lbs. Hope no one else got this.

Way to go Sister!!!! 10 lbs down !!! When was the last time you lost 10 lbs so quickly. What is your plan for the scales, Im thinking twice a week. I cant believe I actually want to weigh, that is just so wierd. Usually I avoid the scales like a plaque. So funny....

Dont worry about eating too much, you cant your stomach wont let you. I found I can eat about 3/4 cup Soup, you got to remember alot of that is liquid so it processes quickly, when you move to the soft foods, your intake will be more limited because our stomach will fill up and hold it longer.

Your doing FANTASTIC!!!!

I dont think its a blot clot, but check with your doctor in the morning.

I have restless leg so my legs are always tingling, so far I have felt fine. I got home on the 22nd and had my surgery on the 19th

Ok, I couldnt stand it anymore, I got on the scales this morning, down 7.1 lbs. Have anyone else gotten on the scales, if so lets hear about it.

Hi everyone, hope you all had a good trip home. I was exhausted by the time we got to the house. It was a pleasure meeting each and every one of you and I look forward to maintaining our relationship and supporting each other with exciting journey. I was hoping I could get input on your Vitamins and Protein powders you will be using. I currently am going to buy the costco Protein Shakes but wanted to hear more about other options and also about the vitamins you will be using. Thanks!! take care..

Good morning, I'm actually doing pretty darn good. We got home from our travels about 6:30pm last night and I rested most of the evening. Up this morning reading my materials and figuring out Protein powders, etc., Vitamins etc. Not hungry but hate the anti biotic pills, How did everyone else do on their journey home? Also, what is the Protein Powder everyone was talking about that doesnt taste like anything? Hope everyone is doing well, lets hear from you.
