MaeConnie68 1 Posted June 1, 2011 Good Evening Everyone, Well today is my one month post op and I weigh my self today and I have lost 45 pounds. I thought I was dreaming. I had to have a friend to make sure I was awake lol.....The breakdown is 31 pounds preop diet and 15 pounds since the surgery. OMG it has been whirlwind month. My surgery was 5/4 and I was interview for a promotion at work on 5/3. Well I got the job. I think it is a good omen. I am starting a new life in more ways than one. I feel so much better. I have never felt better in such a long time. Now I do have my days, I say to myself what did I do, especially when I see something I really want to eat. Then I say to myself this is the new lifestyle I have choosen am I am going to stick with it. I never finished anything in my life I have always quite half way through. I am not going to quit this for sure. I am still on a full liquid diet. I will visit my dr on Friday I hope the diet changes. If I every see another can of chicken noodle Soup I will scream . Well enough of rumbling on. I could have not made this far without the support of this forum. Thank you to everyone who has answered questions when I needed. I am sure I will have more in the future. Have a great week... Connie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
