Shar Pei

Glad you are dong well! I am 4 weeks out and have my shake every morning for breakfast. Do a 1.5 scoop and get 36grms in at once plus 8 from the skim milk....and I really like my shake! Not sweet at all. I like the greek yogurt too....14 grms! It will get easier each day!

Take care

Gee..I am sorry you had such a bad experience. I do understand about some people being so insensitive to overweight folks...it is really sad. But good luck with your weightloss! Think positive!

Wonderful Wonderful news! I can feel you excitement! Keep up the good work..you are such an inspiration!

Hi! I was banded the same day as you! It gets better each day! I got one protein drink in yesterday and today I decided to do 1.5 scoops and skim milk...if I can't get any more in today..that is fine. The protein powder I decided on it really pretty good...so taste is not an issue.

Keep plugging along...you will do great!

Hi Leslie...Congratulations! You are all done! I had mine done the day before yours..13th. I can tell you that tomorrow you will probably feel pretty good. Big difference for me today.

I am struggling getting all the protein and water in...but little by little it should be ok. Only took 1 pain pill the night of the surgery..

Sounds like you are doing great!

It will be something that I will never forget. I worked in Jersey City...the view I saw every day was the NY skyline and the towers on the other side of the river.

One of the guys said "Look..there must be a fire in the restaurant in the tower"..we walked over to the window and it was no restaurant fire. Everyone put the news on and since we were next to a large conference room..someone ran in put the TV on. It was a plane. Shortly after we were looking and saw the other plane hit. Panic set in with everyone. You could see people falling out of the buildings and all different types of material dropping to the ground. You could only imagine the horror going on over there.

The NJ waterfront was filled with police. But what happened next was unreal...one tower went town right in front of our eyes...in slow motion...was it a dream. We cried..we were afraid that there were more planes. Then the next tower fell. Our office building rumbled with each fall.

A coworker was frantic because the pentagon was hit...her son just about got out alive.

We all left..the ride out of the city was horrible...people pulled over due to sickness..nerves..panic attacks.

The days following and the smells...you will never forget.

You are amazing! I just read all your blogs! I can't wait for my day....and hopefully feel as joyful and excited as you are! Have a wonderful journey.

Good luck Megan..Your big day is here and I know you will do great. I am waiting patiently for mine... I will use you as an inspiration.
