Dylan- My hubs is my everything, I love him as much as I love to breath. He is the best thing that happened to me, but I think my MIL worries because she doesn't get so see us often so she doesn't Know what is going on. Each time we see her I think she gets a little more comfortable with me, she is sweet, but I just have this desire to please her.

I was also sleeved on the 21 of may. However, I live in Stockholm Sweden and we were supposued to be 4 ladies operated on that day but one was cancelled and I think it had to do with the fact that her blodpressure was to high, or maybe she chickend out. It was so easy, first night, discomfort and some nausea and from then on it got better fast. I am sitting with a bowl of tomato soup and enjoying life. I am so happy I went through this. Lets go back to the part of the lady that didn´t go throug with the op. The day before we were all in the clinic to do all the testing and while we were sitting in the waiting room a sleever came in. This was a woman who had had her surgery a month ago. She was so mad that she couldn´t eat or drink properly. She started to tell us a horror story about her surgery and how awful it was and how much pain she was in. The poor lady was so scared that she told me she was thinking of bailing out, and i guess later she did. So my point is this, be prepared for anything and everything but you need to know that your decision to do the operation comes from within you and is not to be messed with.

Looking great!!! Keep up the great work!!!

You look great! Congrats! And good luck with having that baby

The weight loss all depends on the person. I'm dropping weight like a wild man averaging more than 5 pounds per week. I also workout 7 days a week for at least 45 minutes a day. Today I worked out for nearly 2 hours. Of course the higher your initial BMI is the faster you are going to lose. I know what you mean about looking in the mirror and seeing a bigger person looking back a you. I've lost 12 inches from my waistline and dropped 2 shirt sizes. My mind still hasn't been able to comprehend that :-)

Woo hoo watch out sexy! Great job!

I definitely have those moments. I see my family going to town a big, fatty bowl of pasta or mowing a giant cheeseburger and I have these moments of "ugh I wish I could just have an hour to eat normal". ...but then I remember that's how I got to over 400 pounds... and suddenly that dripping burger doesn't look so appetizing anymore. You're doing so great!

Hang in there - it will get better and easier. I am 5 months out and have a whole new life! It is amazing. It will be well worth it. Keep us informed.
