Mrs.Hansen88 72 Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Thank you everyone for your kind works and encouragement! I am so excited at how things are going. My husband thinks I am the "poster child" of successful recovery. I have had no complications this far, no vomiting, no aversions or problems with any foods I have eaten so far. My only problem is making sure I get enough fluids in! :-) Weight loss seems to be slowing quickly but I haven't started back strong in the gym yet. Here's to hoping the next 40 pounds comes off just as easily and quickly! :-) Edited July 7, 2015 by Mrs.Hansen88 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erika00000 27 Posted July 9, 2015 Congratulations!! I entered ONEderland on 7/6!! Similar to you, it was at least 7 years since I was under 200.... and seeing that number on the scale is amazing! I cannot wait until my next doctors visit when we no longer need to move the scales weight from 150 to 200. That will be a moment to remember Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mallen1895 108 Posted July 10, 2015 Congrats. I cannot wait for that moment. At 2 months I'm 41lbs down. I have 25 lbs to go to get in the hundreds. My gift to myself will be going to the spa. Something I always wanted to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mrs.Hansen88 72 Posted July 11, 2015 @@prbaby28 my surgeon doesn't allow for us to drink Protein Shakes. I am only allowed to eat 3 meals a day, a 1/4 of some kind of Protein. and the only other thing I do is drink Water, propels, or zero Vitamin waters.(I do sugar free Popsicles still just to try and get my fluids in. I'm not doing anything special by any means. I have been stalled now since I posted this tread (so five days).. I have started getting back in the gym but very slowly.
