  1. I am in Oklahoma also. My surgery is scheduled for June 27th with Dr. Nelson in Norman. I also have a lap band that I am having removed. It had to be unsnaped during my 23rd week of pregnancy because it had slipped. It's been a nightmare. My son is 18 months old now and I have gained almost 100lbs since he was born.

    Doing pretty good. Back at work, 1/2 day yesterday, full day today. A bit sluggish I guess. Don't seem to have any trouble getting fluids down, but it's so odd. I had all this stuff bought and planned to drink when I was on my 2 weeks of fluids, Propel, Poweraide, bought some sugar free jello....and I can't stand the taste of any of it! Lol....It seems so sweet to me now. I seem to do better with warm de-caf tea, SmartWater, and chicken broth. I guess this is good though. I've lost 9 lbs since surgery, that makes me smile...I think the only thing that seems to bug me is I have some trouble sleeping at times...like my stomach is still a bit sore and I wake up halfway through the night and have to move to the recliner...Hope all is well for you still...

    I use either Atkins, Muscle Milk, or Shakeology with a scoop of Isopure unflavored protein powder, 2 tablespoons of PB2 peanut butter powder and 2 tablespoons of plain 0% fat Fage yogurt. If I use Shakeology, which is a powder, I use 8 oz of water. with any of it I use 3-6 ice cubes and put it all in my blender. Its about 50 grams of protein per 20 ounce shake. I drink the shake throughout the day.

    I'm hanging in there. I am finally done with nights for a while!

    I am losing slowly, as well, about 2-3 pound per week, but at least its something :-) My guess is you are doing everything right!

    I'm still drinking protein shakes, but that is par for my course even pre-sleeve because of my diet. Trying to increase my exercise. We'll see...
  5. Hope things are going well. Thanks for the compliment. We try hard. Anxious to see you in six weeks.

  9. Tomorrow will be a week out. I have absolutely refused to get on the scales cuz when I did I had gained 10#. I am so depressed. I am drinking my 64 oz faithfully. I do have some pressure when I drink the protien shake. I FEEL LIKE I am doing something wrong. i want it it just to start feeling better and have the pounds melt off of me, All my vitamins make me sick, PLEASE let me know if im not the only looseer that cant do this@

One week out

by headnrs3044 on 03-13-2012 at 09:47 PM
Well I can not believe its been a week. I really thought I'd be stronger than i am. My staff keeps reminding me of how OLD I am....that just wants me to do more.....I am not having any regrets. Getting my 64oz in daily, have been hungry a time or two but nothing bad. I havent weighed in 2 days cuz I dont like what i see. I am going to weigh tomorrow AM.....praying for a lower number. Thanks for all the encouragement. I really appreciate it!

Bad Day!

by headnrs3044 on 03-08-2012 at 12:53 PM
Wow, I really wanted to be at work today. I actually feel as thought some one has beat the Sh*^ out of me. I hurt when I move I hurt when I'm still. It hurts to drink, it hurts not to drink. I am nauseasted. My shoulders and neck hurt as well. I feel like a total failure. Sorry for the negativity....its got to get better.

Hello All-
Well I can honestly say my operative day was a blurr. For those of you I hadnt told, I was so nervous the night before I took a Xanax along with my Ambien. Needless to say, I was to be at the hospital at 5:00 and arrivaed at 7:30....helps that I work there, but scared to death that I was going to be canceled! I was the last to be done unstead of the first!
Last night I walked, walked walked and sipped, sipped sipped! It wasnt too bad, but my left side does hurt more that

I am so nervous and excited about Tuesday. I am not having second thoughts at all, but am praying that all will goes as planned. I am having my Grandson come for a visit next week (Spring Break) March 10-16 so I'll have a couple of days to recooperste before entertaining him. Well, its not that I have yo do alot of entertaining, he is 13, but I am just proud that he still wants to spend time with me at his age! He knows I am having surgery so he will be understanding and a big help.
I am
