    Going for the orientation meeting Tuesday

    I was able to take 3 1/2 weeks off. I was banded 8-26 and I do not return until 9-21. This is the maximum that my insurance plan (Short Term Disability) would cover and pay me 100%. Good luck on starting your journey! I know that you are really excited!

    Starting Soft Foods Today - Total Weight Loss..

    Thank you all for your support! It really helps me be successful!
  11. Well, I am doing soooo good! I am really proud that I was able to consume solely liquids for 28 days!!!! I never cheated once! That was some serious will power ya'll! LOL.. But the beneifts are showing. I have lost a total of 29 pounds from this liquid diet plus exercise (14 lbs since surgery 8/26).Now on to the soft foods! I was told that I can have crab meat. I am not going to mix it with anything. I am just gonna have straight up crab meat. I am just thrilled to have something other than broths, protein shakes, and jell-o!! :wink:
  12. I am good.. Feeling any better today?

    Liquid Diet

    I agree.. Sugar free popsicles! JAlso, I ate Jell-o (by Jell-o) I do not reccomment Hunt's brand or a generic brand. Also make sure that you get a tasty protein shake. I actually JUST finished my liquid diet yesterday. I chose to do 2 weeks liquid prior and 2 weeks liquid after. You will feel "mean" after a few days.. Then honestly your body will get used to it.. I am not going to say that you will not be hungry some days.. But remember, it is only temporary. With strictly sticking to this, I have managed to loose 29 pounds in 4 weeks! Stay strong girl! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!

My weekend was very long too :( In the house a lot recooperating.. Blah.. BUT later today I get to start on soft foods! I am trying to figure out how to send u a private message so I can give you my e-mail address. I am always connected to my Blackberry! Talk to you soon! Also, 28 pounds is AWESOME! By the way, people are telling you the truth.. You look fantastic! You have to remember, we are are toughest critics!

  17. I am glad that you are feeling better! Yeah the gas pains sux! As for me, I am almost all the way healed. It doesn't even feel like I had anything done (pain wise)!!

    Why am I such a scale whore??

    Why am I such a scale whore??

    Howdy folks (I say "howdy" because I was born and raised in WY) - Yes there are black folks there :tt1: LOL!! Anyway.. I did pretty damn good today. I walked 5 miles outside UPHILL. It took me 1 1/2 hrs but I did it baby! So that's the good news.. the bad news is that I am trying NOT to weigh myself everyday.. and I have not been successful ... I get tempted everytime that I look at the scale. I have toold myself that I will just have the fam hide it.. But knowing me I will go on a scavenger hunt for the damn scale like I'm playing "Where's Waldo?" (Sigh).. I KNOW it will seem like I am loosing a lot (not that I am complaining now) if I wait and weigh myself once a week versus every day. So we will see.. Pretty much just checkin in.. I'm starting to ramble, so I will holla at ya'll later :confused:

    Why am I such a scale whore??

    LOL! You sound like me! Btw, 14 lbs is awesome! In a week?!? But see.. this proves we need to quit being scale whores because if you would have waited an entire week to see the 14 lbs lost, you would have been SUPER stoked... Not that you are not happy.. but it would have made it that more exciting.. I know, I know easier said than done.. We better stop this madness while we are ahead, or we're going to be feautured on the next damn episode of "Intervention" LOL! Keep me in touch!
  22. How are you feeling?
