  1. Hello:

    All is well. Getting back to normal pretty much. As you can see, I don;t come here often these days. I don't get on the scale often but my clothes are fitting better and I recently purchased some 34 jeans. They are a little tight but just like all my other clothes I have brought recently, I am hoping that in a few weeks they will start to fight better. Glad to hear you are doing well and looking like a teenager. Thanks for checking in on me. Talk to you soon.

    How are you doing nephew? I hope everything is getting to normal and that you are feeling better and better everyday. I went to my PCP last week and he walked into the exam room and told me that I looked like a teenager. Wow, I'm still feeling good from that.
    I hope you are having a wonderful relaxing and fun long weekend. Auntie Lulu

  10. Looks like the scale has stopped moving or even moving the wrong way. I won't panic or get upset. I just hope i did not get this surgery and will not loose more weight.

    Thank you so much.
    How are your doing? Are you now on pureed foods? Aren't they wonderful after the pure liquids? I hope that you are getting better and better everyday and that eating is getting easier and easier.
    I am fantastic! I am recovering so well from y hip replacement 10 days ago. I went to see a physical therapist last Thursday and he told me that I was done with my walker and could start walking with just a cane. We have had a busy weekend and I'm not even tired from all the activity.
    Hope you have a great week!

    All right now... Don't worry trust you will be able to eat again. I remember feeling that way. Just try and get your protein in and don't worry about anything else. At 5 months out, my appetite has returned, however the room in my sleeve has not. It keeps you on track. Food feels MUCH better going down and in my stomach. I am now in a stall, I have not lost one pound in over a month. I've increased my exercise... However I am way ahead of the game as far as weight loss and will wait this stall out.. You will be fine!!!

Sometimes It just Feels better to let it come out

by bigggietosmaller on 06-02-2014 at 03:56 PM
Sometimes when the food does not go down right, it feels better to just let it come out!!!! I have been doing ok for the most part. I am 5 weeks out today and returned to work. On Saturday, we had to go to the studio to record our demo. We stopped at McDonald's before we got on the road. I had the honey mustard grill chicken wrap (NO I DO NOT EAT THE WRAP PART) and I have tolerated this recently. I ate about half while we started driving. As we continued along, in this jeep with me in the

Chest Beating!!!!!!!!!

by bigggietosmaller on 05-22-2014 at 07:13 PM
Will the chest beating ever stop? I seem to have to beat on my chest to get a burp out after eating. I often find that I have to take a Gas-X Strip after eating as well. I am hoping that by the time I get back to work I won't need to beat on my chest to relieve the uncomfortable feeling in my chest.

HAPPY DAY!!!!!! - 10 Day Follow-up with Surgeon

by bigggietosmaller on 05-08-2014 at 08:31 PM
I went to my 10 day followup with my surgeon I am down 11.5 in 10 days!!!! I am looking forward to the pounds continuing to drop. I even was able to buy a vest in a Large although it must run a little big because the designer ones I tried did not fit as well. Overall I am happy with my progress.

One of the things that seem to be a little frustrating is that everyone else seems to be progressing to stages quicker than me and they seem to have more choices than my surgeon gives.

First day of pre-op diect and 15 days to surgery date

by bigggietosmaller on 04-13-2014 at 10:09 AM
Lord Help:

This is the first day of the rest of my life!!!!! Today I started my pre-op diet after spending the last about 10 months on a downward spiral with regards to my weight (or should I and upward trend). I started looking into weight loss surgery about 2 years ago but decided against it and instead I started Weight Watchers. I lost about 25lbs and got tired of all the tracking and stuff so I stop tracking and counting points. I was able to maintain my weight loss for about
