It's been a month since I've been on, just been very busy. Gonna try and catch you up as much as I can.


I am now in the Phase 3 diet plan. I am so excited because I can actually have food with substance and texture. Along with everything from the previous phases, I can soft/moist chicken, fish, turkey, and beef. I can also have soft scrambled eggs, tofu, mashed beans, and peanut butter (1TBS per day). I also have to drink 2- protein shakes per day. I am actively learning

June 30, 2015, I am 13 days out from surgery and went to my doctor for my post-op visit today. My weight today is 216.8. I am down 26lbs since my journey started on June 3rd.

June 18th, I wake up. I am feeling wonderful. Well I am still in pain but definitely not like yesterday! Today the feeling was like I did too many crunches and overworked my ab muscles. I was still getting that pain medicine though. I got out of bed for the first time today to use the rest room. Of course I had to drag the IV pole but only after I disconnected this other machine that I was hooked up to. We did it ourselves but the alarm was so irritating till the nurse showed us how to turn it
