Well I am nearly three months out and 28 pounds down. I feel good, but I always felt good, Changes are happening, I am down one size in clothes and even my ring size is down one. lol My doctor visit last friday went well and I may get another fill Wednesday. My biggest gripe right now is my baggie pants keep pulling my underwear down lol

Today is my 2 week anniversary post op. Since I started my pre-op diet on Thanksgiving day, I have lost 21 lbs! Not too bad for the amount of time. When I break it down, I've lost about 11 lbs since surgery (I think?!).
Ive been doing really well w/the pureed foods---I cheated yesterday & today w/some soft proteins--just some low calorie, yummy lunch meat. It was nice to chew again!
The best thing I've been doing for myself is going daily to the fitness center & walking on the treadmill---I do a little over 2 miles at a nice even pace & get that heart beating--even break a sweat. And then I take the dog on about 2 walks a day. You cant overestimate the importance of exercise---I have a sedentary job & after 26 years of sitting on my increasingly fatter a**, I really need to work on getting my metabolism going again.
Ive never had high blood pressure, but my regular Dr told me today that its at an even better level---Im looking forward to my next cholesterol test too! Get off those expensive pills...sheesh!
 
The band--the experience--its all that I make of it. I refuse to contemplate the idea of going thru all of this and then failing!! Not even an option.
Good Luck to us all!

So I went to my 3rd appointment on Nov.30th. I thought from what I had been told at my first appointment that we would be scheduling my surgery, only to find out when I got there that I had another month to go. I was crushed! Most people would have said wait a minute and asked questions but I'm a "go with the flow" type a girl. As much as I was upset, I quickly got over it. I gave myself one day to sulk and then was like ok, its only one month. And its a good month to wait through cause everybody knows that December flies by. Then today True Results called and they are submitting my insurance paper work TOMORROW!!! With a tenative surgery date of December 28th!!!!! I start my pre-op diet on Sunday! I am trying not to be to overly excited because I know insurance could deny me but I can't help myself! Everybody please keep your fingers crossed that they approve me!
