danijackson732 0 Posted December 15, 2005 Dear Teresa, I hope you're doing well. God bless you! I want to loose the same amount of weight that you do, although I'm still waiting on a surgical consult to figure out the surgery date. Take care, Dani from NY (soon to be a bandster) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MyKdsDad 1 Posted December 15, 2005 Teresa and Healthy4life, how did it all go? I would imagine you are a bit sore but you've got to keep us up to date. My wife is going in on the 28th and I need to know what to expect. And why is everyone hurting in their left shoulder? What if you lay on your left side with your right side up? *grin* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
casinocat74 0 Posted December 17, 2005 Well I am home everyone!! Other than the bad gas pains, I feel a little sore but good. I stayed 1 extra night in the hospital because I had some problems with liquids. Other than that, I feel good. I am really not hungry at all!!! I have to force myself to eat my Breakfast and drink my Protein Shakes. I am just glad to be home. I have lost 5 pounds since wednesday!! YEAH!!!!! Probably all the Water in my tummy. I really do feel good though. Kinda sore but I got some yummy pineapple flavored liquid pain killers, so I am set for a few days. Well I just wanted to check in and tell everyone I was okay! I will be back later!! Thank you everyone for the posts and the nice words of incouragement!! :) :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

casinocat74 0 Posted December 19, 2005 Hello everyone! Thank you all for the support. It's nice to know that there are alot of people out there going through the same thing that I am! I am happy to say that I am feeling alot better today. I don't have any problems getting my Fluid in each day but I am not hungry at all. My fiance ordered pizza for himself last night and when I smelled it, I thought I was going to through up. I am very excited to start my new life. I cannot wait to buy new clothes and just notice my body changing. I can feel myself getting full very easily and I have had no problems with drinking anything. I enjoy a nice cup of hot Decaf coffee at night before I go to bed(the best part of my day!!) Other than that, I really have to force myself to finish 1/4 cup of creamed Soup or cream of wheat, it really doesn't look appealing to me. I cannot wait until the pureed faze though. I absolutely love sweet potatoes and yams so I am way excited to get to eat them(if I'm hungry) I have made up a whole diet for myself which includes fresh fruits and vegetables and chicken. I am excited to start cooking instead of buying fast food!!!:ogre Well I need to go back upstairs and in bed. I will keep you all posted here and there!!
