tredwine 1 Posted August 28, 2012 Good morning, and let me tell you it is a good morning. Just got on the scales and am down 22 lbs. with 39 to go. I can fit back into my smallest jeans I had when I lost my weight on my lap band and am 7 lbs away from my lowest weight on the band. Once I got past the rash, this has been the easiest process ever. I did both of my county fairs and have just now caught up on my sleep. Its time to start exercising, as I was unable to walk these last two and a half weeks. Today I start my two miles a day again. How is everyone else doing? Sorry I havent been communicating lately? lets hear from everyone. I think of all of you often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildflower 35 Posted August 30, 2012 Hey girl, its great to hear from you.. I am doing pretty damned good I do believe. I am down 50 lbs and feeling pretty good. Just gotta learn the limits and I think spices hurt my tummy, learned that the hard way yesterday. I am drinking my Protein and trying to get in more Water but a 20 oz bottle seems to be about it for now. I can have a bite of most anything it seems but I don't like the feel of solid food just yet so I'm not gonna try it often. I am making some cheddar potato Soup for me and home made chicken noodle for the family right now.. the smell is killing me. lol I do find that I feel so very hungry, didn't really expect that .. but easy to make go away. I do have heart burn issues but nothing that prilosec didnt help.. got a prescription for it from my doc and all is well.. I am very happy to also report that my doctor has stepped right in, started me off with the blood work I would have had with a follow up visit after my surgery, she was so awesome and supports the decision whole heartedly.. she informed me that I have lost 58 lbs since the last time I was in her office, and i no longer need meds for blood pressure or sugar or cholesterol.. hot damn !! All in all I have no complaints and I would still do it all over again and again and again. I am very proud of myself for the food choices and the will power I have.. I am going out in public more and to madeline's school and sports functions.. which is why I did this to begin with. How is everyone else? wonderful I hope. I sure loved meeting you and VIRGIL and hope to stay in touch.. my cell is 404-290-5959 and welcome to all my fellow sleeve sisters and Scott i love ya lots and wishing you all the bestest Vicky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
