My hair is falling out
Sep 22, 2008
I'm approaching 3 months, I've lost about 45 pounds. I still can't really eat much, which is ok, because that's why I'm losing, but my long longs are falling out like crazy! I'm a bit worried I'm going to start having bald spots soon.
On a lighter side! I fit into another smaller size jeans this weekend and started to cry! It's an emotional experience. I've not been at my current weight since around the time I had my 13 year old son!
We went out for my husband's birthday and a friend of mine kept saying how hot I am. I felt great!!!!
I've accomplished a few things already!!
1.To be able to not have the red grooves in my stomach because my jeans are too tight.- Yeah but now I'm wearing smaller tight jeans!! LOL
4. To wear some clothes I have had stashed away for years because one day I might be able to fit in them again.
7. To be a good influence on my daughters and to make all my children proud. They are proud of me!
15. Weigh less than my husband! WOOO hooo- it's not a good feeling to weigh more than your 6'2 husband!
22. Have better sex with my husband!!!! He said, hey is that a hip bone I feel???? LOL
25. Be an inspiration to others. I think I am!
2 months already!

Just a little over a month out
Jul 30, 2008
I'm a little frustrated with not being able eat anything yet. I can handle carnation instant breakfast. I am eating some thin yogurt right now and even that is causing me to feel yucky and gurgly!
I'm sure that my tummy is just taking it's time to heal and adjust and I have so much weight to lose still that I shouldn't be fussin, but I am craving a crunchy salad like crazy!!!!!
So, I've had my surgery now
Jul 14, 2008
I've been sleeved!
My husband and I flew down to San Diego and then were picked up by my Doctor's office and driven down to Mexicali. I must say to anyone that is wondering that going to Mexico was a wonderful experience. My doctors were fabulous and the hospital was very nice. I'm happy I made the choice.
I't's been almost 3 weeks since my surgery and I had lost 17 lbs last Wed when I weighed myself. I don't want to start obsessing so I still just weigh myself and make note of it on Weds.
I am happy to report that I am now pulling some clothes out of my too small bag and that is a wonderful feeling!
I'm still on liquids so I have a hard time getting much protein. So, I'm really tired, but seeing those numbers on the scale drop makes all this worth it!
