Highest 389 Day of surgery 359 Today 328 [ATTACH]1051[/ATTACH] This morning [ATTACH]1053[/ATTACH] Surgery 7/25/12

We are also a Disney family, and I found myself hating it because I would get tired, sweaty, and grumpy and not enjoy it even during the prettiest times of the year (Christmas). I hated being all sweaty in every pic when everyone was wearing sweaters. Now that I'm lighter and feeling good I'm looking forward to going and having a good time! Surgery 7/25/12

I was worried at first that 4 weeks was not going to be long enough, but after the first week I was feeling normal and good. I was ready to go back to work. I did enjoy the month I got to spend with my daughter. Best of luck!

I use my fitness pal but since I don't eat much its hard to track. But that weight one is great. Thanks! Surgery 7/25/12

Such great motivation! As someone said weight tracker I just went to my app store and downloaded one:) super cool! Surgery 7/25/12

Hi! My starting weight was 389... Not 400 but I was pretty darn close. I'm 5 weeks post op (day of surgery I was 359lbs) & as of today I have lost 38 lbs so far. What caught my attention was the need to lose 200lbs. My surgeon & doctor want me to lose 200 I am sceptical because I don't hear much about that # lost. But that's what I need to lose! At this point I still can't imagine what I would look like in the 100's. Lol Surgery 7/25/12

My poor hubby... He's bought me poweraid zero in every flavor, mio in almost every flavor, propel zero in 3 different flavors, peach crystal light, Passion tea tazo bags, and a costco case of diet green tea. I too could not do Water it was hard to get it all in. But I got burnt out on every single thing! So grateful he found crystal light ice tea.... I've been faithful to just this for 2 weeks and still love it. Just find what works! Surgery 7/25/12

I measure at home with measuring cup. I need to get a second plate ... Or needed. I need to stay home for a while it was a bad experience for me. Surgery 7/25/12

Thank you! Surgery 7/25/12

I started my cycle (early) right after surgery- Dr said it because they give me anti blood clot shots and it thinned my blood, or something like that. I had it for 12 days! Surgery 7/25/12

I was told no but when I talked to a friend who had surgery 2 days after me, she had been doing strawberries in her Protein all along. & with straw she said it was the "only way" she could get it down. Try it see if you can handle it Surgery 7/25/12

It's the morning after a really painful night... I still feel FULL! I'm sipping water- I have no desire for food today. I think I'm going to do a liquid/protein day Surgery 7/25/12

Yeah, I did clear in the hospital. When I was discharged I was on full liquid and Jello etc for a week. Then from 1week to 1month its was soft foods... Scrambled egg, cottage cheese, Beans etc. At my one month I'm on chicken shrimp all veggie and fruit and salad. Surgery 7/25/12

I wish I had the right words to help through this and that it would be easy! BUT.... It's hard- hang in there Surgery 7/25/12

They won't cover your rny or rny in general? If its yours specifically find out why, diabetes is no joke. Keep trying! All the luck Surgery 7/25/12

It amazes me how different they all are. Surgery 7/25/12

I was told 6 weeks no soaking or swimming. But if you have the ok- go for it! Water is a great resistance and work out. Surgery 7/25/12

Oh... Dont let it mess up your day! Start fresh now... Temptation is horrible! I want soda so baaaaad! a French frie sounds amazing. Just keep your eye on the prize and move forward. Surgery 7/25/12

Mine didn't hurt either.... My surgeon used glue so it was itchy as hell but yours is healing great! Surgery 7/25/12

I wish I could wear heels! I'm 5'7'' and my hubby and I are same height anything more and I'm touring over him. Welcome! & rock those heels girl for you & me Surgery 7/25/12

Praying! All the luck!! Keep us posted Surgery 7/25/12

I was told before leaving the hospital not to freak out ... But been there and I was worried. First the smell is always bad... I don't eat much and still! (Sorry ppl lol) the loose bowels are because you haven't eaten enough to bring it all together. It's all normal and okay. There was extensive work done in there and its working great! Congrats & welcome! Surgery 7/25/12
