I went to the store to buy a couple new pair of shorts because most of mine were literally falling off of me.
They barely had anything because, you know, its july so all the summer clothes are starting to be replaced with fall clothing..lol
I found a couple pairs, most were a size smaller then i thought i was...well I tried them on anyway and they fit!! I couldn't believe it.
Before this surgery i was wearing size 20-22's and I just bought 3 new pair of size 12 shorts!!!
I guess I don't have to tell you that I bought all 3 pairs that I tried on, do I???!!!...lol!!!

I was at my son's school today to drop him off for a field trip the 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classes are going on and I was talking to his teacher. His last year teacher came up said hello and was talking to his teacher then she left. When I was getting ready to leave so I went over to my son to say goodbye and the last year teacher started yelling my name...she said she didn't even reconize me and that is why she didn't talk to me. It just amazed me that she didn't even reconize me!! It felt really good.
OMG!!!

I can't believe it. I stepped on the scale yesterday morning and it said 201!! That's 44 lbs gone! My surgery was only about 7 weeks ago. (I started loosing though a few weeks before, because my surgeon told me to.) I am just so excited that soon I will be under 200 lbs!!
19 days later...

...and I feel great. I am so happy that I decided to have this surgery. I am still a little sore but its really not bad.
I am back to work this week. I decided to work 7 hrs a day though instead of my usually 9 so that I am not over doing it. Next week I am going to try to come back full time though. I am sure I will be able to. I could probably do it now, if I wanted to.
I am slowly adding pureed foods to my diet and a little bit of tuna & oatmeal seem to be okay too. I am not hungry at all though. and when I do eat I get full after only a few spoons full. It amazes me because I was always hungry before!!
The weight just keeps dropping off of me. My clothes are already loose and baggy on me. Everyone that sees me tells me that they can tell right away that I am loosing weight. So far I have lost 31 lbs since The beginning of january. That is when I started loosing weight for the surgery. I have lost 17 lbs since surgery 2 1/2 weeks ago!!!!
