I can't believe we're finally on the losers bench! Congrats to everyone on this side of the journey. Keep us updated with your progress.

Our April first peeps are Deana Wright, MissMeagan and Nella. Ladies, tell us everything!

Today I am 11weeks postop and I am down 49lbs!!! Actually bought a size 18 pants this past weekend. In dont remember the last time I wore that.

1st time I had coffee my tummy felt odd too. Now it's kinda ok with it. The chicken..I don't know if I can ever put it in my mouth again. I hate eggs..I can tolerate it with something hiding the egg taste. I get concerned I won't be able to tolerate any meat soon. Pork doesn't taste right what I've had so far but nothing like chicken. I have not even had 20grams protein today. Nowhere near enough fluids I'm sure after the vomiting from the chicken.

If u have a hard time adding me to my fitness pal just tell us your screen name and some of us here will friend u. I had soccer mom tell me how or I'd never know myself I think u are doing great losing 60+ is amazing. I am trying not to even get the scales out..my husband said he was going to steal them and get rid of them as it was making me neurotic not losing even a 1 every week or so but yet I'm busting some mean saggy Clothes. I guess he's right. Your body has had a bit more to heal from that most her so u def deserve some time to heal. Your daughter gone off to college..you may have to start Sexy Sunday.. I will just say my husband thinks I'm crazy but when my son was gone I'd go streaming through the house saggy skin and all just trying to make him notice that was my sexy Sunday lol

Hah! So funny. I told my husband we are going to walk around the house in our underwear now that there will be no kids in the house. Not sure that will be too pretty of a sight! I have you "friended" on MFP, and I can view your menus. I have two "friends" now. Woohoo. It is interesting to see what others are eating. Seems like we are so limited. I loved eggs before the surgery, but even a few bites starts things gurgling and I get these loud reflux noises coming up my esophagus. Not sure what that is all about! Chicken and fish don't go down well, either. Tonight I had 2 oz of low salt ham and 1 oz of cheese in a small salad, and that went down well.I guess it is just going to take time. Of course, carbs go down great...crackers, fiber one bars, etc. But my nutritionist wants me to stay away from carbs. Melons and berries are sitting well, too. So my food world is expanding. Vegetables are a little harder to digest.

I feel so lucky to have the friendship and support of my on-line friends! :wub:

This is the baby quilt. I'm still learning. It's a pinwheel quilt.

Great job!! I quilt all the time. Pinwheel quilts are one of my favorites. I love the apple green.

Today makes three months and saw my surgeon today. I'm doing awesome down 79 pounds as of today. My levels are great except my liver enzymes but they have been high since 2011 and now must get the liver biopsy done soon since I've been putting it off. Sure i can handle any surgery but this i have to be awake for so I'm pussen out. But I'm happy happy happy life is good.

My friendships here are so wonderful!! It's nice having folks who know what u are talking about. I haven't really been tolerating meat as much as I'd like. I loved it so much before but now I'm kinda blah on it. Had shrimp tonight and I still have to force it down. I love watermelon now. I have like 4 in my garden waiting to be ready. Can't wait. We have been eating them often here. I had shakes today as much as I don't like them. Got my Protein in tho so no complaints.

Anyone needing mfp friends my id is hockeymumzie

So the ER was NOT great. It was a 12 hour process but found out what was wrong. Seems I have a very large cyst on my left ovary that grew with all the hormonal changes in my body. They basically had to shoot me up with pain meds. They starred with morphine but that didn't help at all. Went stronger just enough to knock me out. Now, I have to worry about it rupturing. Omg! The pain is indescribable!!!
