Hello everybody I am now 3 mos post op, and everything is going really well! My energy level is at a all time high!! My confidence is sky high!! I feel so secure with my body, and my looks untill it is just plain ole sickening!! lol! I have been doing Zumba, and boy ole boy is that a lot of fun! I especially enjoy doing it with a group of people! We have a blast and I actually feel like I am in a club! My eating is doing pretty good. I try not to eat that much chicken, because I found out that my pouch does not really like it!! I take my vitamins religiously, and I try to make sure I keep protein 1st and get in my liquids in( which sometimes can be hard) I have to make myself eat, and every once in a while I get hungry, but nothing like it was pre op! I am participating in more activities, and going to a lot of family events!! I am so excited for the summer, because me and my family have so many things planned! The best part of all of this is buying a new outfit to wear that I can look fabulous in! I started off on this journey in a size 24 and now lord behold I am in a 20
YAYYYYY! I am so happy that I pulled off wearing white pants/jeans, I never wanted to wear white because I always felt to big...WELL NOT ANY MORE!! OK OH family until the next time....LOVING MY RNY

Well I am now 2months post op and I have been feeling Ok I guess, but lately I have been vomiting
after I eat, and this is something new for me! I think I can not tolerate greasy foods! Yesterday I ate 1 peice of a fried chicken wing and Up it came! Once I threw it up I felt better. Friday nite I had some chinesse food lomien noodles, and up it came uggh! Earlier this week at work, I had a peice of baked chicken and up it came!! When I eat all of the safe foods salads, seafood even a subway sub with turkey and ham on it, and it digest really well! So I think it could be greasy foods, well I will watch this new development and pray that this does not last long and that it is nothing more serious! On a good note The scale has finally moved!!

4WEEK POST OP VISIT!!
Feb 09, 2012
Well I went to my 1month post op visit yesterday, I am actually 6 weeks post op as of now!! The doc says that I am doing pretty good but he would like to see me loose more! He states that I am drinking to many liquid proteins, and I need to incorporate more solids in my meal plan, and to don't be afraid of eating! So he thinks that I am getting too many liquid calories, and the body can not keep living off of this!! So today I am changing my meal plan to eat more high protein foods, and if I do a protein shake it will be in the evening as a snack!! On the day of my surgery I weighed in at 316 lbs, when I started my journey I was at 338lbs, Rite after my surgery I went back up to 338lbs, Now I am at 295lbs. So my doc is going by my last weight when I weighed in at my pre op appt, so he says I only lost 20lbs...REALLY DOC REALLY I SO LOVE THIS MAN HE SPEAKS NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH!!! So Meal plan change, up my exercise routine, and I will let you guys know how it works out!! WISH ME WELL OH!!
P.S Well I be DAMM I JUST GOT ON THE SCALE AND I WENT DOWN 3LBS YAYYYY!! tHE SCALE FINALLY HAS MOVED!! I was at a tiny stall for about 2weeks!! SO FREAKIN HAPPY! OH I forgot to tell you guys that I got the job transfer closer to home, Thank God so this should help me with my routine a little better!!
