No big news. Everything is going well. I am going shopping to get new cloths. Last week I was able to fit a size 22. Haven't seen that size since my daughter was born and that was 10 years ago. Yipeee

11 wks out and I'm down 50lbs. I can't smile enough. I am wearing clothes that I haven't been able to wear in years. I can actually see my feet. Yippee There are so many things that if I wrote them all down I'd be here forever. I can't wait to see what the rest of my journey will bring.
Almost 7 wks out

I still haven't seen a lot of change. I am down a few more lbs, but not a lot. I have lost a total of 36lbs. I am continuing to exercise. I am now wearing a smaller size 24 pant. I can still fit my 26/28 but they are extremely baggy. Anyway, until next time.
6 weeks out.

Well I am starting to notice the weight loss and some of my pants look like a sack. Unfortunately I have stopped loosing. I have not lost a pound in the past two weeks. It is a little frustrating, but I'm going to keep it up. Last week I increased my exercise to daily, but I hurt so bad by the weekend. I reduced it to M-F. Hopefully next time I post I will have good news. Until then take care.
Almost 4 weeks Post-op

Well it's been almost 4 weeks and I'm down 32 lbs. I'm on more of a regular diet so things are good. Still having a hard time getting liquids in, but I am doing my best to keep it up. Things are starting to get better with me keeping things on a schedule. This week my daughter is on springbreak it been kind of hard. Once I get back to work I think things will sort themselves out.
I haven't had any problems with eating any type of foods. So far so good. I am going to up my exercise because I am ready to put the 300s behind me forever. I've got 20 lbs and then I can say bye bye 4ever and I can't wait.
Well bye for now.

Thank you for all of your supporting comments. It means alot to me. Those last few day were difficult for me. My nerves were something else. Now that I have made it over to the loosing side I wouldn't change a thing. This has been the best decision I have made in my life. For all of you thinking of having the surgery, take the plunge because it is well worth it.
Two weeks out
Mar 17, 2007
It has been two weeks out and I am down 25lbs. My hospital stay was good except for the gas. The pain was minimal. I didn't use any pain medicine and didn't have to fill the prescription Dr. Gibbs sent home with me. Everything has been great. I
I've only had one problem and that was with eating the natural peanut butter. That was a no no. Before I knew it my head was swimming and I felt like someone had turned the heat up. It got better once I laid down and I now know to stay away from peanut butter. I am still having problems with gas though. Gas-X has become my best friend. I have also been experiencing some constipation. I am trying to increase the liquids to make things a little easier.
That's all for now. I'll keep you posted.
