Its been 1 week and 3 days since surgery and I'm down 10 lbs. So excited about this. But I am starting to feel a little depressed about food. In my mind I'm not going to be albe to eat the food I used to love in the quanity I used to love to eat it in. I know I did this sugery for a reason and I dont regret it for one moment but I do miss what I was able to used to do

So excited I got the call for my orientation date, and it only took a week! There's no turning back now!

For the past few weeks, I've had a hankering for a peanut butter cup, and have managed to resist buying any every time I've gone shopping. The combination of peanut butter and chocolate is a favorite even though I'm not a choco-holic. Recently I've learned about PB2 powder and have found a recipe on Unjury that just might satisfy this craving and still have more protein and good stuff than bad stuff. I just ordered some PB2 to try. Will let you know how the peanut butter cups turn out.

this is my week 5 update . down 40 lbs and feeling ok . getting ready to have my 3 teaspoon dinner. awsome

Live, Love, Lapband: Week 28 Post-Op Weigh In http://t.co/Yh1647sTdP

Working from home this week 1/2 days

My first week with no real loss. Not as bummed as I thought I'd be. Celebrating anyway!

Hopefully I finally broke this stall last night. I am officially down to 300 pounds! Lets keep trudging forward.

Still losing, after a stall for the last week I'm back in the swing. I want to lose 10 more pounds before Thanksgiving (that will put me in One-derland!)

If you're week 5 and beyond and you're having issues with keeping food in comfortably, try Prilosec. It worked wonders for me.

1 week until surgery

Week 5 has been the best one yet! I am able to eat all kinds of foods now, still slowly but it's made a huge difference.

Nothing like an almost 2 week move to keep you movin' and losin'

It is time...revenge time!!! Three years ago I couldn't fit on a roller coaster because I was too big. Now I am down 126lbs with a 24BMI. Bring it on Millenium Force!!!!!! Can't wait.

Almost 7 weeks out, down 40 lbs total and wearin some baggy clothes!

17 weeks post op and feeling beautiful in my new body!!..

2 Weeks!!!

3 Weeks and 1 day to go!!

Surgery next week and I don't feel like I know everything there is to know. Like what vitamins, protein, and things like that. I'm hoping to have all the info at pre op appt. the dietician gave me a general handout (maybe I better go back and review) but I still feel somewhat lost. Back to the threads I go.

I'm so excited. My second appointment is a week from today!

Okay, I've been slacking the past few weeks, but now it's time to get back on to of things, back to the gym, back to the pool, and back on my plan.

Pre op appointment in 2 weeks!! Such a long process.. so much closer!
