Pulmonary appointment went great! I have my first sleep study next week which will likely show sleep apnea. I've already made my follow up sleep study appointment WITH CPAP two weeks later. Then I meet with the NP at the sleep center Nov. 13 to see my results and get my clearance.

Did not want to get up early after working 3, 13 hour days in a row but I managed to drag myself outta bed lol

Got a letter from my doctors office today notifying me that I'm projected for surgery in December 2012...no exact surgery date though..they also sent me the paperwork to fill out for my psychology evaluation...My endoscopy is next week so I hoping I'll get a call soon scheduling me for my eval and then I'm on my way to be sleeved...so excited..

I have been on a full liquid diet since 9/3, due to this leak. Monday the dr. said I can start soft foods ... but I am scared. How ironic is that? lol... I've gotten used to this routine (and hey my weight's dropped well as well). So now what? Sigh.... I made goal (woo hoo)! 149.5, boo yeah!

1 week post-op and 17lbs down!!!

2 week stall; still cant drink/eat enough but trying

1 more week and back to work

sleeved july 12th......i have hit a stall for about 3 weeks : ( but even though the scale isn't budging.. i finally fit into my old jeans that i have held on to size 10!! so apparently my body is loosing mass even though the darn scale isn't moving.. I'm very happy .. : )

Just trucking right along. It's exciting to know that in possibly 2 weeks I will be in Onderland and One Year Older!

One week out of surgery today!!

On a stall, and getting frustrated :-(

I have lost 6 of the 10 lbs I gined in a week! I'm so happy! Thank you all for your support!

Got my date! October 1! Coincidentally 3 years to the day that i started Jenny Craig (2009). Weird!

Starting my 8 week Optifast pre op diet tomorrow

I think the culprit to my nausea for 5 weeks has been my chewable vitamin!

Two weeks out from orientation and still waiting for my phone call for options classes.

One week till surgery and I'm soo excited for the next chapter of my life to begin!!

been working out for a week and it feels great

Hello All!! I'm doing better...walking has improved and I am driving again. I only take 3 pills a day but still on the insulin. I'm most proudest of my a1c level...its 6.7! It was off the charts before the sleeve. Now to stop my sweet and carb cravings lol!

8 weeks Post-Op and my size 18 skinny jeans never looked soooo good

Hope the Mexicans aren't still pissed when I'm in Mexico in dos weeks.

Officially One week sleeved and weigh in this morning has me down 21lbs since the beginning of my pre-op diet on July 19th. Loving My Sleeve!!

Well, 8 days of vacation, eating out 3 times a day. I only gained 2.4 pounds. Not too bad.

Hell Yeah it is Saturday and plan on having fun tonight after I get done making my chicken fajita dish one last time, probably not the last but it'll be awhile before I'll be able to eat it again, my last week of eating food and then liquid for 10 days, surgery and liquid some more, but it's all worth it!

Taking off for family camping! Should be an interesting week of eating...hmmm.....
