Well I am down 35 pounds!!! So that makes 35lbs in just one day shy of 3 weeks!!!! I cant believe it!!!! I had my surgery on Sept. 3rd and I am still on the soft diet. It has been alittle tough with a world full of food you cant eat.. but it will all be worth it, it already has been! I had some pants that I couldnt even get into about 2 weeks before my surgery, and yesterday.. I thought gosh what am I gonna wear... the two pairs of pants I have are too big now, so I thought what the heck I will see how tight these one pair of pants would fit, well if at all... and guess what!!! THEY ARE BIG ON ME!!!! I COULDNT BELIEVE IT!!!!!! Its so exciting! I hope everyone is doing great!!! God Bless and may you all have continued success!!!
