    Have you received your DVD yet? I need mine since I will have to have an additional surgery. I paid the $50 and they said it was video'd. I was just wondering if you received yours yet? My friend went across the border and never met Henry for a lunch that was set up prior, she got my medical records for me (or else I never would had received them) but no DVD??

    Hey there. Sounds like you are doing awesome! My Dr. allowed me soft foods after 3 weeks, so for the past week I've had lots of chicken! Even had a chicken wing at a party last night (I know, fried= bad but it was sooo good) and went down super easy. I've also had tuna, salmon and ground turkey this week. Anything I try seems to go down easy for which is great but hopefully I don't push it, ha. Have a great week and enjoy that chicken!

    Since I have returned to work, I am losing again. I plan on getting a treadmill in the next 2 weeks. My husband will have the surgery on April 16. He starts his 1 week liquid diet on Tuesday.

    My stall ended (for now)! Hope I keep strong for awhile, but I will never put up numbers like some people on here. Oh well, I'm still losing and feeling great. Thanks for the encouragement!

    Hello Olga, I think my before picture reflects how I felt emotionally. My family is hyper negative, more then the tummy tuck. I took out my stitches and felt so much better. Now it has been two weeks and I feel more then better, I not only have lost over 20 pounds, I have a ton more energy both physically and mentally. I am so grateful for how I feel and for Dr. Q. I love what I did . Thank You for your kind comments. I am starting to wear my older clothes, that I had not been able to wear, so I am loving wearing clothes I have not worn in a couple of years. I am a clothes horse, so being able to wear my nicer clothes is awesome! How are you doing? How are you feeling? All the best, Eleanor Rose

    hello, Congrats on your outing. I have been out some, but not with two little ones, that takes a lot. I'm glad you are doing so well. I have been doing well, it is 1Am and I'm feeling a little depressed tonight, I don't know why. I have been looking at those sitches and wonding if I'm going to be able to pull them out myself! I'm not sure I can, they haven't moved and are tender if I tuck a little? What are you going to do about yours? all the best, Eleanor Rose

    Hi! How are you doing? I saw you blog post...I know you feel like sooo much has changed...but with time you will feel better and you will enjoy your sleeve...give it some time! Btw, I love your profile pic! You look so pretty and the scenery is just awesome!

    Im not sleeved yet! But I do read many of the blogs here on this site and everyone seems to be so happy to be on the sleeved side of life! I want to be sleeved too!
    Take care!
  11. Thanks for asking. I am resting comfortably at the hotel now, enjoying the peace and quiet. Can't really say how I feel yet because it's still a lot of ups and downs. I think I will be better able to objectively tell my story after I get home and start to feel better. I'm still very weak. But I can say that I was very pleased with Dr. Q, he is great at putting people at ease, answering their question and never rushing anyone even though he is a VERY busy person. I'm also very impressed with his credentials and experience.

Week 4 Discoveries

by Olga1o1 on 04-14-2013 at 03:42 PM
1. Water does NOT sit comfortably in the stomach by itself, and since I can no longer eat and drink at the same time it’s making it even more difficult getting enough of it in.

2. My love of spicy foods will have to take a backseat to my desire to lose weight, because my new stomach FREAKS OUT when I have anything with any kind of even mild amount of spice, especially with a few slices of my beloved jalapenos in it.

3. Easter candy may still taste as delicious in my

The Dreaded Week 2/3 STALL!

by Olga1o1 on 03-28-2013 at 04:45 PM
So I heard A LOT about this common "Week 3 Stall" on my WLS Facebook groups, and still for some reason thought it wouldn't effect me since I was eating exactly like I was supposed to and loosing weight just about every day. I lost 16 pds on my pre-op diet, and than another 13 within the first week and a half right after surgery. And than week two arrived. I was excited to start the pureed foods stage which started out with about 2-3 tiny teaspoons of FF refried beans (which were heaven!).

One Week Out - And first Outing!

by Olga1o1 on 03-15-2013 at 06:52 PM
So today is officially my one week since surgery and I decided, well more like didnt have a choice to head out of the house and go grocerry shopping, since there was about NOTHING left in my fridge for my husband to eat. If it was just me here I would be happy with just some water, if I could get it in.

So my one year old and three year old in hand I packed everyone in to the car and headed out, aftraid if I would be able to actually make it back home (with how weak I was feeling)!

Six Days out of Surgery - Physically Healing, Mentally Adjusting

by Olga1o1 on 03-14-2013 at 01:41 PM
I was sleeved on March 8th, at about 4:30 pm. It has now been six days, but feels like I just got back. Physically I am still a little sore, not bad if I take it easy, mostly just weak with some pressure in the chest (especially after a sip of anything). I got to say having two toddlers to take care of makes it is hard to ever really "take it easy", but I am trying. Mentally however I feel like I have A LOT to "heal" to sort out. I don't know why, I didn't think this would be

Things Crumbling Under My Weight - Countdown to Surgery

by Olga1o1 on 01-08-2013 at 02:57 AM
Now I know that everyone talks about clothes when they look for inspiration for wanting to loose weight, or being around for their loved ones, and I am looking forward to those for sure, but you know what I AM looking forward to?...Not breaking anymore things because of my weight. That simple. Tonight I broke the little mini-stepper I had just purchased less than a week ago, I've been really putting it to use since I got it and tonight one of the steps came off and wont stay on anymore, yet ANOTHER
