Hi there,
Is that a wheaten terrier in your picture?? ck

Thinking of you!!!!!!

Hey Kim...how is it going? It has been four weeks for me...am feeling great! I have to admit I went through a ''blue'' phase... really missing food... missing being able to take more than a bite or two of food, it is strange not being able to really eat much of anything! That is the entire point of all this...but you really do have to let yourself grieve a little...just be ready for that but its all worth it in the end! What is the newest with you?

Ty for the number I will program it into my cell. Really nothing new here..just waiting for the pre-op appoint. basically. Anything else new with you? Have a great rest of the day Kim!

Hi Kim! How are you? I haven't seen much of you lately. hope you are well! NUT was just about going over the green sheet and vitamins. 2 multis,2 calcium,1 B12...I hope to see or hear from you soon!

Hey Kim..I finally made it! I passed my Physch. Eval. today!! How are you doing? NUT Tomorrow @ 1!

Hey ''Kim''... if you have ever had lap. surgery...the first few days of being bloated from the gas is crappy. My pain was never really that bad. Didn't take much for pain meds. The reason I said 2 bad days was after 24 hours they had you start with ice chips then to clear liquids. the first 2 days of this was miserable cuz everytime i swallowed anything it caused terrible heartburn/chest pain, but after that is got easier...one large swallow of liquids fills up your new littler stomach..so if drink too much to fast.... same kind of chest pain..but not as severe just have to learn and listen to my body. Google gastric sleeve it explains it well with pictures. I really feel pretty good...going back to work tomorrow. I have lost 11 lbs in a week!!! Now that is amazing to me and makes it all worth it already. Keep pressing onward.... you will get there!!!

Hey...I had my surgery last week, I am home and doing well. The first 2 days are a little tough, but it all gets easier after that. It's really weird to not be hungry... I knew the hard part wouldbe giving up food.... even though i am not hungry I still would like to eat a big juicy hamberger or pizza but wouldn't be able to even if i tried.... just getting enough liquids in is a challenge keep me posted on your progress!

Yes..I too feel like I will be successfull for once d/t volume restriction and just being that hungry. I can always stick to a very strick diet until I am just flat out starving...then I cave and binge!!! My weakness is cheese! sounds wierd, but cheese..like nachos, I can sit and eat an entire block of cheese at once if I didn't stop myself. I am sooo ready for a perm. change. Keep me posted on your progress towards surgery.

Me too.... I am trying to figure this all out...I never know if when I post something you can read it...did you get my long response about mexico?
