Hey How are you feeling? I am doing good but really can't handle the shakes anymore..ugh! lol

Thank you! Surgery went pleasantly well. Lots of nausea but not much pain at all. (((hugs back)))

Thank you!

Hi ther..... thanks for stopping and for the message!!!! I love this site and all of the wonderful people here!!!! Happy Holidays!

I could have swore your surgery date was 10/20/13 but know that i looked again i see that it's 11/20/13 so that mean's your 1 month and 6 day's after me,oh well we are close enough.i'm doing great, i'm almost at 290. And the fact that you have lost 25lbs already is awesome,let me know how your doctor's appointment goes,o.k..
Talk to you soon,best wishes,tony.

Hi sherri,
hey, i just noticed that our starting weight was exactly the same and our goal weight is only five pound's difference and our surgeries were only 6 day's apart ( how did i miss that? ) anyway i think we need to keep more in touch with each other than we do cause maybe we can help each other through this journey that we are on, so think about it and let me know what you think, i don't want to be a pain in your ass!!!!!!!!!!! Tony.

Hello!!! How are you? How is it thus far in the sleeved side? I hope well! I hope your recovery is getting better by the day and your reaping some of the benefits from surgery already... just wanted to see how you are doing...hope to chat soon ... Amy

I am doing good first day of protein blah...lol there is nothing good about protein shakes....lol I am craving grapes for some reason...lol an egg sounds good right now I really hate tv commercials right now all holiday food!!! arrrgggg weird that i am never hungry though. oh i will keep in touch. here is my regular email juliecurd@sbcglobal.net

Made it home yesterday afternoon, no pain just from the 6 cuts which is a good. learned in the hospital don't eat the ice...that caused that chest pain or tightening real fast ....lol Thought I was having a stroke for a moment. But moving around ok the getting out of bed this morning was a little painful. The gas x strips are a life saver though, that is great stuff. down 2 lbs from surgery!! this is so weird how i am not hungery. How are you doing? Did you have a good Thanksgiving?

Unfortunately, I didn't do as well as you. I had planned to stick to my low carb plan that I've been on this week, but I totally caved. I keep feeling like these are my last meals I'll ever enjoy! Although I know in my head I will be able to eat again. ....Right? Lol. But thank you and I hope you will encourage me-because I'm going to need it Only two weeks now!

Yep wide awake!! I am leaving at 615am so no reason to go to bed. OMG i had that bathroom explosion tonight!!! needless to say i had to take a shower earlier than usual...lol I never dreamed that just being on liquids and just protein had this effect! It was the jello's fault damnit!! lol cool no pain that's good to hear i have high pain tolerance so this should be easy 6am will not get here soon enough I wanna leave now!! atleast there would be no traffic...lol

When you say the pain wasn't what you expected, do you mean in terrible bend over and scream pain or just uncomfortable weird pain? I do know i have to get a sippy cup, you confirmed it...lol am excited mine will be done in 12 hours....finally!!! i am so sick of jello, i hate jello to begin with...lol who ever invented that crap should die heheheh....but i will sign on asap or text your cell when i finally get stable. I am off to pack then have my last liquid to drink prior to midnight, I ain't even going to bed Thanks so much for the support.
smile and hugs! Jules
