30 days out and doing great. I am still on full liquids for another week. I am so blessed as I have done great with the protein options, getting most of my liquids in daily and having plenty of energy. I only weigh once a week at Weight Watchers and I am down 27 lbs since I started my journey. I even make it to the gym several times a week.
Today was the first day people at work noticed my weight loss. That was different for me so I guess I need to get used to answering some questions. I recognize this was a major life change but I am so happy being off my metformin, simvastatin, and ramipril. I'll take vitamins over all that other medicine any day.

    Congratulations on your progress! My surgery is on the the 26th of October, and I can identify with your need to start answering some questions. How will you answer? I am debating just saying that I have been dieting rigorously (since that will be true). I have found people tend to react negatively when they know you've had a gastric surgery.

    I am saying I am doing high protein, low carb and drinking lots of water. I feel a little guilty but then I remember I don't owe anyone an explanation. Even my mother doesn't know just because she's elderly and would forget and I would have to explain over and over and I am not up to that.
    I work in a school and so the ladies I work closet with knows and a few family members but that is it.
