I have lost 18 pounds! 6 came off in the first day on liquids (before surgery) and 12 more this week. Amazing, can't hardly believe it. I already have said a long overdue goodbye to the 300's - went from 310 to 292 in just 8 days!!

Also my healing is going great - got my drain out today and I feel so much better. I've been walking 30 mins+ the past 3 days. Getting in all my Protein and all my Water. Today I got to eat some refried Beans... yay real food! I am already feeling my strength returning, and I just feel WONDERFUL! I am feeling more healthy already.:001_tongue:

Christie - Congratulations!!!

What a great result, and to get past the 300 marker as well, I bet you have a permanent grin on your face!! Its good to hear you're enjoying it and making good progress.

Keep up the good work

Kathy

Christie,

That is awesome news! Keep up the good work! The pre-sleevers out there like me need to keep hearing stories like yours to keep us motivated and confident during the pre-op process.

Keep us posted.

So glad to hear all your progress! I'm doing great too and loved your blog you posted. I couldn't figure out how to write on it. What can I say I'm Old school. :blush:You are getting alot more walking in than me, so that has challanged me! Thanks, I needed that! Have a super day, Sheryl:lol0:

Awesome...to you girls that did the sleeve early on in your life..bravo to you! My surgery was May 18th..had the band 2 yrs. prior..of course that's another story in itself...had WLS been as abundant, acceptable, and the vast information out there.. .I would have wrapped myself around this years ago..

Congratulations on your surgery and getting out of the 300's forever!!
