  1. It's been 28 days since surgery. I've lost ten pounds and then just stopped. First fill date: July 7, 2010. No, I haven't exercised consistantly. I hate sweating! I know my packet says don't worry if you don't lose anything the first month, but I am disgusted with myself.

    The first two weeks on the liquid diet, no problem! Well, okay, bloating, gas, upset stomach, but hey, I was losing weight and I was happy!

    Last week I got the results of my food allergy testing and POW! I got knocked right off my pedestal. I have to change my entire way of eating. Allergic to wheat, gluten, yeast, cow's milk, yogurt, tuna and pork. Yikes!! Okay, I tell myself, I can deal with this. Basically, meat, fowl, fish, vegetables and fruit.

    Oh how our minds twist at the thought of "never again"!

    I hadn't realized how heavily I relied on yogurt and milk. I found almond milk, and it tastes yummy!

    I'm depressed because I thought I'd lose more weight than I have. Basically I've been at the same weight for two weeks now.

    Sure takes less food to survive than I thought.

    Turning the "augh! no more cookies ever!", into "that would harm my body", is a challange.

    But hey, we're all here because we're up for the challange, right? right? hey...
