    Thanks for asking. I am doing pretty good. I was 248 on surgery day and this week when I weighed I was 215 and am 9 weeks post op. It seems like I am able to eat more than I should be so am really trying hard to measure things out. I go back on the 23rd for my 3 mo check up and am hoping to be to onederland (under 200) by then.
    How are you doing?
  2. Thank u
  3. Hi Dee:
    Hopefully things are getting better for you. It is a challenge - and all of us are in the same game as you - trying our best to lose the weight and become the best we can be. Keep up the courage.

    Thanks, I have been trying to drink but it has been such small sips until today...day 5 post I have noticed I can drink more than I had been. My pain is minimal and I am not taking any pain meds except some childrens Tylenol once today just because I was going to be up moving more and wanted to make sure I had something for pain. Saturday my tummy was hungry growling and I told family I was going to get a protein shake and sip on it but I didn't and today the hunger has been better.

    How are you doing? I will be sleeved on the 28th with Dr Smolik. I can not wait. Any last minute info you wish you knew prior to surgery?
    Thanks and congrats on your success.
  6. I had surgery on Dec. 10 so almost 2 weeks ago. Been doing great and lost 12 before I even had surgery. The last two days I haven't lost. Haven't been below 200 in almost 6 years. Just hoping I'm not done losing already.

So I seen my surgeon and I voiced my concern with me not losing a lot of weight, (lost 35) since Dec. He told me that I started out with a bmi of 37 and I'm down to 31 that I didn't start out with a high bmi so that is the difference. I've yet to measure my inches but I'm going to do that soon. I work out 5 times a week and eat between 800-900 calories a day. He did say he would like me to be about 165 by July when I go back. Wow. I'm not sure that 13 pounds is going to come off that easy now that

I am 10 weeks out and I don't drink protein shakes much anymore? Do you all think I should be drinking them still?
