    Hi Pixie, Yes, only one week from today!!! I am excited too but I have a tendency to worry. I too, know we will do fine, but I still worry. Just my nature. I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Next week this will be behind us and we can start our new lives. I haven't been bothered by the liquid diet phase either. Much easier than I had anticipated. Good luck to you girl.
  11. Hey I'm doing good on my pre-op diet. I'm glad you met your goal weight that's awesome.

    hi !! we have the same surgery date !!! I just found out Friday after I went to weigh in and found out that I met my goal weight !!! I was so happy and shocked !!!! Im nervous and still in awwe like is this really happening !!!
  13. Lynn it was good to hear from you! Yes my husband is having it Tuesday! He's ready and so am I. I think it's neat that we are having it done as a husband and wife team. I think supporting each other will help out tremendously. I guess you guy's are doing it two weeks apart also. I hope that gives us enough time in between surgery's. I weigh alot more than you do but as far as that goes it's a personal decision. My husband weighs about 334 now he's lost 12 pounds. The reason he is having it is so that he can get a knee replacement. Hopefully getting off the weigh will help I hope. He is out of work because of his knee and he's ready to go back to work. We need him to be able too. I hope all goes wells. I will let you know how my husband does after surgery. Take care and I will talk to you later~

    Hi Pixie, I will start my pre op diet on Tuesday. I also have to visit the dr that day for the psych consult. Did your husband have or is he going to have the surg? My husband is having it on Sept 19th...just 2 weeks after me. Getting pretty nervous but I am going to visit my mom for 2 weeks so that should keep me busy.
    Your picture looks great! Just wait until we can post before and after pics...now that will be exciting. Hang in there!
  15. I put up my picture which I hated to do. I hate pictures of myself. This was made a few years ago. It is closest to the size I am now.

Reflecting back over the last six Months!

by Pixie on 02-25-2012 at 01:14 PM
I'm coming up on six months March 6th, it's been a journey but not one I would trade for anything. I'm disabled and for me my weight loss has been slow. When I started this journey I thought I would have lost 100 pounds by now. As of this morning I've lost 60 pounds. I started off losing very well. I hit several stalls and when I got in the 270s I couldn't get out of them. I still can't eat alot at one time, but can eat most anything without problems which is good. I have a slow thyroid

Has anyone experienced............

by Pixie on 09-16-2011 at 09:18 PM
Ok I was sleeved on Sept. 6th, did really well. Wasn't in alot of pain when I got home. Yesterday I had to go to my post op appointment. Everything went really well. I had to run several errands. Later in the day I had to go to my son's football game that was out of town. I decided to ride with a friend. To make a long story short I got in and out of different cars about 23 times yesterday. Last night late my stomach hurt worse than it ever did in the hospital. My stomach was sore to touch.

Yesterday I was so thirsty, and u know you can't drink much at a time. I can't wait for all you sleever this week to give me an update. Huggs, Pixie

Soup Recipe

by Pixie on 08-30-2011 at 11:21 AM
Last night I was looking in the fridge trying to figure out something new to fix. My husband is one week out and I'm having surgery next tuesday. I took about 6 yellow squash and sliced it up. Then I peeled one large onion and diced it up and put it in the pot and cooked until tender. During the cooking process I added 1 cube of chicken bouiion. When it was tender I put it in the blender and added about 1/2 cup of skim milk, salt, pepper, garlic. Then I pureed it and voila I had some tasty
