I had mine on 7/30.. Have lost 18 lbs! Can't believe it!

Wow... you're a beautiful girl! And it will just get better and better.. huh?! Good luck! And keep us posted.. :-)

Wow!!!! That's fantastic!!!! So... how does it feel??? I'm only a week and half in.. only started pureed food yesterday.. Would love to see pics if you're willing...

How strange.. I replied to what I saw as the last post, and suddenly a load of new posts came in.. how confusing.. :-/ I just found I've lost 15 lbs though.. so I'm also really happy... :-)))

I think we're at the end of the pain, and it's just a matter of a few days now.. And I agree that it's so much fun going through this with other people.. step by step.. :-) I started with a little pureed liver and mashed potatoes last night.. two teaspoons of each and I was STUFFED!!!! What a fantastic feeling to be full and satisfied - and from soooooo little!!! I wonder why each of us was told a different amount of time on the liquids...

Congrats!!!!!!! Does it seem like a week to you? I was told only one week of liquids, and now can start with super soft pureed food.. anyone else? Also still in a little pain.. :-(

This was amazing to read. You made me cry.. Im sooooo happy for you! You deserved this after everything you've been through. You didn't say how you are feeling? Physically or emotionally with all this.. I hope you are amazing... :-)

That's great!!!! You sound really happy... :-)

Thanks.. I have been using heating pads.. and the nausea is nearly gone.. I've also been taking pain killers.. I know it's early days.. it's just hard when my kids just want me to hold them and play with them.. they're the only ones that can't understand... :-/ But soon all will be AMAZING.. I just know it!

I'm with you!! I want to live a BETTER life!!! 257 to 244 (day 6....) I'm 5'6.. :-)

That's great to hear.. and exactly what Im looking forward to.. :-) What's it like going out with friends to eat? Or for a family meal or something..?

Good luck! See you on the other side..

I just found all you guys.. and I can't stop reading.. I am on day 6.. (wow! didn't realize.. haha..) so I'm right in the middle of the pains from the gas, left side, back pains and nausea.. Makes me so happy to read you're traveling and starting to live a new life.. :-)

I actually had a really bad day today.. in alot of pain.. And not being able to hold my babies (one is a year and a half old, and one is six months..) is really hard!! But my hubbie is wonderful, his daughter is amazing and my mom is helping loads too... Also, I just noticed the weirdest thing! My shoes feel too big! Very strange! Haha... How has your day been?

I am also a 7/30 gal... and even though I just found you now, it was like finding old war buddies or something.. you know?
