Southern Missy asked for it, so here goes. Love, love, love riding my trykke. I weighed about 205 or so here, and am now down to 199.4.

It's great exercise that is so much fun you forget you're working out until your legs start to feel like jelly. That's when I have to get off, walk, and stop trikking so that I don't kill myself on it.

Started pre-surgery diet 4/23/07 at 324, and now 199.4. What an amazing year it's been, and I truly feel like I'm about 20 years younger. Still have a ways to go. Started out with 3X and 26/28's. Now, on top I wear a Large, but on bottom I'm still in size 18W - grrrrr. I'm hoping to be in a size 12 by the Fall of 2008.

Keep up the good work and come and join me in Onederland.

Sue

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
