Hi, Well, here it is 2months later and I am doing great! My stomach hurt today by my belly button, but I think it is because I haven't wore my binder. I put it on right when I got home. I weigh 212 today and so I have lost 41 lbs. I am not sure which scale is right because I weigh myself at home and at work and I am confused about that. I keep going up and down, up and down. I just can't believe how fast I am losing weight. I am not hungry but I do know that I need to eat more. If I eat on a regular basis I feel fine, but if I wait too long, I do not feel very good. I am taking my vitamins and trying to get the water in. I love my water and can't wait for the 30 minutes to go by after I eat so I can have my water again. Weird huh? I know! Ha! Ha! I will check back in later. :) Judy

Hi, Yes, well, it is me again. I just had my 6 week appt and I have lost 35lbs. That is so great! I am not feeling good today, though! I am just in the learning experience and have to learn to eat VERY slowly and take little bites and eat more throughout the day. I think I will try having a glass of milk for breakfast or a carnation instant breakfast and maybe that will help me. I know I am not getting enough protein in! I am weak and tired. :( I have lost 7 inches in my chest and 4 or more inches in my waist. My Sister measured me on the day of my surgery, but I do not have those meausurements. I will post my measurements on a site soon. Well, hopefully next time I post I will have learned alot more about eating and feel much better. Sometimes I feel just great and others it is off to bed I go.

Hi Judy, I came looking to see how you are feeling. Im sorry that you are having the head hunger. I promise it does get better. That was really hard for me too. I got to the point I would go to the other room when everyone was eating in the house and that did help alot. Call me if you need to talk.

Hi Well, it has been two weeks since my surgery and all and all, I feel pretty good. I have had some depression, but I guess that is normal after a major surgery. I really am not that hungry, but the head hunger is bad! I want some real food! I just try to take one day at a time and that is all I can do. I go to the Dr for my first post op visit on Monday and I will see how I am really doing. It is very hard to get the protein in, especially since I do not like sugar free stuff! It actually makes me ill! Oh, well, I will just hang in there for now and I can't wait to be 2 mths post op! Ha! Ha! :D Talk to everyone soon! Judy

Hi Well, today I feel the best I have felt in the road to weight loss. I figured out that all of the sugar free stuff was really making me sick so I found other products. I found Blue Bunny yogurt made with splenda and it didn't make me feel bad. Whewww! I also bought carnation instant breakfast with NO added sugar. I didn't know what to do because I knew there was NO way that I could eat much more sugar free food. I feel so much better! Well, I will talk to you all real soon! Judy

Angel flying in for a report on Judy. I spoke with her today and she says she is doing great. The catheter is out and she has been up walking. She has no staples only steri strips. She sounds great.

I thought I'd stop by and say I hope your surgery went well, and that you are up and out and about again in no time at all. You are still in my thoughts and my prayers. Cathy Whitmer
