Nancy, how are things going? Haven't heard from you. I'm fustrated have been having stalls! I'm only down 30lbs in 2 months. How is it going for you?

Just eating. I haven't been to they gym in a while! LOL

Thank you!

Hey....look at us with the same birthday and year too....i think we even started close to the same size too....
actually the bride is my sister Nicole, she got married a few weeks ago....and YES she was stunning!!! I am the one with her.....long hair with the curls in the back brown dress....although i did feel pretty good that day....lol First time in alot of years...
You are doing so amazing!!!! Look how fast the weight is coming off !!! Dont you feel great about it?
I am Michele, by the way lol

Hey Nan!
sorry I haven't answered...been a busy bee with my FRG (I'm the co-leader, treasurer and secretary) so I'm going to respond to both of your messages........
man I miss HEB! I worked for them for 2 years and loved it! I was in floral...I started out as a checker and part time in floral in Round Rock and then when the new HEB Plus opened up in Leander, I transferred to that one as the assistant floral mgr...I miss them soooooo much!
I totally miss being able to down a glass of water...I HATE sipping! But I do it begrudgingly..lol I'm able to tolerate pretty much anything I eat...only thing that didn't agree with me was malt-o-meal and it just made me so nauseous and hurt so bad I wanted to die! But it only lasted for a little while and it was like nothing..weird...
You said you're not taking in your protein...why not?!?!?!?! you NEED it! Are you taking your vitamins? you better be!!!!!! You're hair will be falling out alot more if not and you know you're at a higher risk for osteoporosis as well right? You're body is in "starvation mode" right now and is leaching all your vitamins and minerals from your bones and blood and what not...s'why you need to be diligent about taking your vitamins girl! Same thing with the protein...you're losing muscle mass by the day since you're not exercising and what not like you used to be able to do and your body needs that protein to keep your muscles fed....not to mention you're gonna be weaker if you don't have your proper amount of protein and water...now I'm all worried about you!
That bump you're referring to...is that were an IV was? I have that in a couple of places too...it's scar tissue from the catheter being left there and pretty much the only thing you can do is massage it in circles going outward to try and break up that scar tissue. (my cousin is a massage therapist and that's what she told me to do) not too hard but like you're applying lotion there...just work it in circles...if you're still worried about it call your doc....
keep in touch girl! YOU be good!

Hi Nancy,

Things are going good! I am 3weeks out today and down 20lbs! Yeah... Work is ok. I don't have a physically demanding job, so it's fine. I am tired at the end of the day towards bedtime, but not during the day. I would say that my energy level has increased from pre-op. But I can still tell that I am still recovering. Food intake is going ok. I try to get approx 80 grams/ day. I have 85% accuracy. Some days I slack and only get like 50 grams in. But most days I get it all. I really try to make sure that i stay hydrated. Temptations have been the hardest for me. I'll take a little nibble here and there! What about you? How is everything, from food, fluids, weight loss, etc? Are you working yet?

I hope you are feeling ok from your infection. I went for all my pre-op yesterday i am scheduled for 10/6. I was concerned about the cathater. My husband was recently in the hospital and got a staph infection from the cathater. They assured me it will come out after 24 hours. The info i got at the hospital was good. I am anxious to do this i wish i was already post op.

I am doing ok last night was my roughest day actualy was nauseated and stomach was still really sore. I think it was cause I was really dehydrated. I find it hard doing the sipping I just want to drink everthing faster like I was use to. I had two cuts that opened up the one looks a bit infected to me but everyones says that it still looks fine. I'vd been fine with walking and bending over if I do it slow and carefuly. I just started to sleep on my one side just waking up its just hard to get out of bed that way. How are you finding the eating? I feel like I dont even want to eat at all some days.
