Just completed my 1 month post op. Dealing with mixed emotions about this whole process.. I weighed in and I'm down 36 lbs since I started this process. 25lbs since surgery. Which is awesome of course. The down side is I'm still not feeling myself. My energy levels are super low. I'm having a hard time getting in my multivitamin (tried splitting it crushing it mixing it with jello/pudding/swallowing on its own) and nothing seems to help. I fight to get in my liquids averaging about 40 a day and

Had a great day.. Went to work 1/2 a day. Got dressed up did my hair did my make up.. all to see my surgeon this afternoon. My visit went AWESOME! I have lost 25lbs total 14 since surgery 2 weeks ago! Yay me! My dr was super happy to see me doing so much better. He was really pleased with my progress. I had never seen him so excited with himself and me I guess!! Gave me the thumbs up to move onto the next phase of the diet, which certainly made me smile. He said he couldn't wait to see me at my

Had my 41st Birthday today! Had my Jello cake with a candle. lol! It was a pretty quiet uneventful day! Other than the fact that I found out my husband will need surgery to repair his shoulder! He's going under the knife next Monday! Now I feel bad I was so upset at him last week, especially bcz he's been such a sweetheart taking care of me all week. Hopefully I feel better soon so I can take care of him now. Praying my stomach and gas heal quickly so i can start to get more nutrients down, bcz

I just had it SX 4 days ago and wanted to thank everyone for your well wishes!! It was painful but thebworst is getting rid of the gas that the surgeon pumps into your Abdominal cavity because it causes a lot of bloating and major discomfort! The only way to get rid of it was to get up and walk and walk which isn't exactly what you feel like doing when ur pumped full of meds! On top of all, I had nonstop nausea which was pretty wicked. So I came home on the 2nd day feeling pretty crappy. But I must
