Sorry my first post and messed it up.
I am 5 weeks out and at 25% of my weight loss goal. And I am happy. I haven't needed my insulin since surgery. I haven't needed a nap after work just to make it through the day. I can cross my legs. I guess most of all is that I didn't realize how unhappy I was before. As hard as this has been I am finally getting into the swing of this new life and it is great.
