Getting excited for my band to sleeve in Mexico with Dr. Valenzuela. Wishing for a successful surgery, fast recovery and the will to avoid the sweets in the world. Good luck and God bless us all.

I'm doing pretty good. My husband said we walk about two miles yesterday. We walk to the Wal-Mart down the street. It was a bitch getting there cause it was all up hill.

Yes, I've still taking pain meds. Friday, we went to San Diego. I did way to much. We went on an old navy ship and submarine. My husband wasn't sure I could do it but I had never been on one so I was determined. Going through those holes left me in a lot of pain. Then we went on an air craft carrier, by the end of that I was in tears. My stomach and an old hip injury (which was hurting me much more then my stomach). Today I'm okay. I went to a medical supply store and got a binder for my stomach and it's helping a lot. I'm at work so I don't want to take anymore pain killers.

How are u doing? Hope ur well. Im good super excited for the pureed diet tomorrow. Im bad with my protein drink so i cant wait to eat regular food to be able to eat my protein. My woulds are drying up and no discomfort now. Still trying to take it easy. Tomorrow im going to start to walk more. Are u starting your gummy vitamins i will start tomorrow since today is my 2 weeks post our clinic said start the next day after each week. I have lost 16lbs. Im happy!

Yeah, on 16 lbs. I've been taking vitamins for over a week now. I started the full liquids early b/c I felt so bad & the vitamins help. My husband just made me some soup I can eat. First thing besides shakes and yogurt, I've eaten. My energy is slowly going up. It's annoying me to no end not being able to pick up my son. One more month! I've been walking but get winded and tired easily.
