    I am glad you have almost kicked the cold!! Keep it up and good luck with the purees. I have been trying so hard to practice the eating very slow, small bites, and chewing at least 20 times, crap if I can remember to do it, may i get three bites down that way, then I will start talking and it all goes out the window. That I think will be the hardest part for me, I was a shovel-er for sure!!

    Hey girl, just checking in to see how things are going? I am hoping they are still getting better for you one day at a time? How is the cold, are you over that? It's been 13 days, emotionally are you holding up ok?? How many more days until you can do soft mushy food???

    So relieved to hear from you- please be patient with yourself- your body has gone through a major change and you need time to heal. Don't expect things to go too fast or be too easy- you've read enough on this forum to know that slow and steady wins the race. Keep on getting in those fluids and remember what can help you most is a positive attitude- I have been positive and enthusiastic every single day since my surgery and look how well it has paid off! You're going to be fine- just take it slow, and smile! Even the worst day post-sleeve is better than any day when I weighed 85lbs more than I do now! xoxoxo

One year surgerversary

by ShannaBanana on 03-02-2014 at 08:30 PM
Match 1st was one year ago I had my surgery. This has definitely been a challenging journey. There has been good days and bad days. Days I jumped with joy and days I cried. The stalls were very frustrating. I'm in one now and has really made me mad. I set a goal to reach by one year and didn't make it.
I'm very happy with my progress. I've worked really hard to get were I'm at.
I still don't eat Bread, corn, tortillas etc...i stick strictly with protein. I still have a problem eating

6 Months Update.....

by ShannaBanana on 09-01-2013 at 09:13 PM
Well its been six months today. I can hardly believe it. Time is flying by.[I][It seems like just yesterday I was anticipating surgery. Even though its been, and still is, allot of determination, will power and trial and error, I'm hanging in there. I've never been the one to stick with a diet after a stall before surgery. But now, its totally different. I'm bound and determined to get this weight off, even when i get frustrated from stalls.
My weight lose is slowing down some but still

HERE IT IS......4 months update.

by ShannaBanana on 07-08-2013 at 07:14 AM
Sorry, it's a few days late. Been really busy lately. Well it's been four months now and I think I may have reached 3 of my goals.
1st goal is.....I've lost 105lbs. I'm stoked. 100lbs GONE. I can hardly believe it. Yes the stalls still makes me mad and frustrated. But excited to see the scale move when it finally does. I've lost (I think, if i remember correctly) 55 inches total.
2nd goal is...... TWO...TWO...TWODERVILLE!!! WHOOP WHOOP!!!! I haven't been in the 200s for about 17 yrs
