Congrats to each of you for your 100 lb mark. What an accomplisment. Can't wait for you to get to Onederland. I don't ever want to go back to the 200's again.

I have another NSV to share: Last night I baby sat for 3 of my grand-daughers. When their parents came home my DD and DS were sitting around talking. I got up to leave and my DS, says, wow are you little!! He said your backside is almost nonexistant and your belly is gone. Then he hugged me.

What does the boy want from me, because right about now, I'd give him anything!

Thanks for letting me share, and if I get on your nerves just tell me to shut the flap, but honestly, I love nonsolicited compliments.

Susan, those unsolicited comments mean the most as that means to me 'wow I really am losing weight and they really are noticing'. Keep on sharing 'em!!

I took my meausrements today and from the beginning I have lost 10" in each my bust, waist and hips!!!!! I held the tape measure out 10" more to see where I was before and was amazed!

Thanks Allie, I think you rock too!! You inspire me!

Armywife, I do eat pretty low carb. I have Cereal for Breakfast though (Kashi go lean) and then chicken usually for lunch and dinner is a meat and some veggie. I eat about 1/2 cup portions and that fills me up. I have good restriction. And I am working out 5 to 6 times a week doing 'Power 90' by Tony Horton DVD's.

WOW!!!! Congrats to you guys :) :) :thumbup:.

Long.... Hopefully you can make it to Red Robin again one of these days. I am so happy for all of you.

Julie, I never know when the Red Robin gatherings are. They've never posted about them again in the Colorado board and I don't read Dr. K's. I figured they didn't welcome folks from other docs. I'd love to try and go again sometime. I don't think it matters which dr. banded you, we are all in the same boat and could use support from others in the area.

I'll let you know when they are. I am not a Dr K patient, but I do read their board. They welcome patient from all different doctors. They pretty much feel the same as you... it's not the doctor who did the surgery.. it's the fact that we all need support from each other.

I am pretty sure there is a meeting on the 7th of April (The day I am flying to MI) I believe it is someone from another state coming in for a fill. It's not at RR. I'll have to find out where and let you know.

Again... congrats on the great loss.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
