pasquini

Wooowhoooo! That is fantastic!

@raine Well I have been heavy since I was a kid, if I'm completely honest here I would have one of my greatest NSV's if I ever get to where some woman is checking out my butt! That would probably get even me to cry lol. @kemo, You wi my friend! You gonna be in great hands, and the losers bench is gonna welcome you with open arms. Keep us posted! When is your date again?

Thx raine: I am amazed at how well things are going. I had prepared myself for all the complications and slow loss, the pain and fatigue, so far I have just been great! And I have lost 35lbs as of this morning! I need to get a ticker. Things that I think are helping I am up moving all day everyday, I got home last Friday night the 13th of may, I have not laid around at all. Up out of the house all day everyday. I am sipping liquid all day, I'm not getting a ton in, but constant small amounts. I bought some "emergenC" drink Powder. It is tons of vitamin C and B complex, I try to get one in at least every other day. Dont know if it is helping but don't think it is hurting. And "attitude"'yes I think it matters. I have not once regretted this, not dwelled on what I can't have or such. I am staying positive and excited about this new adventure and life. But that is kinda me anyway. My cup is generally overflowing and stuff is rapidly condensing into it. :-).

Well, on my way to the meeting point to head to Mexico. Dr. Almanza here I come. Whew I am ready to do this and move to the next stage. Woot!!! Long time coming. Spandex here I come! jk, maybe.

Yup, I'll take the butt pain over fat anyday. I'm have been dropping so fast that it's hard to even process

I already have a custom seat had it cut molded gelled, the works. So gues I'll just get used to it lol.

Woot! Congrats to you! Love the personal shopper idea!

Well, I am not getting enough of anything in. I am struggling to get enough liquid and protien in. 30-35 oz is the most I have gotten in on any day. And until today 20 gems protien. Though today I have gotten 30 gr protein in. But my liquids have suffered. Fortunately I have not been tired or anything.

So today is 10 days post op and 17 days since I started my preop diet. I am doing great. Had really bad reflux yestarday. I suppose I am going to start nexus or something. Because I couldn't get anything in yestarday hardly. I am down 33lb today in 17 days!!! Since I started preop. Fires up about that. So far no vomiting, no nausea no real pro lens. Woot! B

I'm sitting here waiting to board my plane to SD. Excited and nervous. I am so ready to have the surgery begin me and begin the healing an new life.

I am down 32 lbs today. That's 10 from preop and 22 since surgery on the 10th 16 days!

Spent about 2 hrs riding my motorcycle today. My but was killing me.

Heck freaking yeah!!!! Good for you!!!

Well, I did a 5 day full liquid, then 3 days clear only then surgery 6 days ago. But yes that fast. I have no idea if it is normal. I will say I have not sat still since the second day after surgery. And since I got home Friday I have been up and going all day everyday.

Btw, I am on full liquids now. Does nacho cheese sauce count?

I am down 28 lbs today. From the start of the the preop 13 days ago. I went to good will and got 5 awesome shirts and 3 Jean that should fit for a week or two lol. For 21 bucks. Can't beat that. . I am 6 day post op feel freakin awesome. No complications or problems so far. This has been great!

Down 21 lbs

Well I finally got home after three plane delays. And decided to Weigh. Since I had not been on a scale since last Friday 4 days into the preop I was down 10 lbs then, surgery was Tuesday so today 4 days since surgery I am down another 10lbs!!!!!!!!! Holy cow that's 20 lbs in 11 days!!! Ahhhhhhhh. Woot *dorky happy dance* *ouch painfully pulling stitches doing said happy dance*.

Lol OMG I meant it "wasn't" particularly painful. Not that it was. You will do fine.

Renee. It was odd feeling it skake out of u It was particually painful, the very last part is a little bigger at noticeable. Not bad not pleaant just one more little thing that u have to do to move to the losers bench. U will be songladd to get it out u wont care. . I really can't stress enough at this point how happy I am about my choice. I know there is a lot of recovery left. But so far it has been better than I hoped for.
