Hi Gloria, My surgery was the 16th so we are really close. I have been graduated to eat anything, (within reason of course) as long as it is mushed up. Of course, no chips or roast beef or hamburgers .. but am eating egg drop soup and I made some lentil soup with onion and garlic and salsa.. with a leg quarter (skinned) to add flavor.. UMMMM that is the best so far. I am down 25 lbs so far. But then I started higher than you did. I ordered some stuff from Vitamins.com and will start using Vitamin C crystals in my water.. it adds a lemony taste and lots of extra vitamin c also Good for the immune system. Also, ordered B-12 lozenges and liquid Cal / Mag combo. Their stuff is all 70% off and free shipping with $50 order.. not too bad when compared w/GNC or something like that. I'm trying to walk a lot and will be back to work on Monday and will start hall walking during my lunch hour. Also, got a protein drink w/ 37 gms of protein that doesn't taste too bad so I try to get at least one of them in a day.. 8 oz.. takes a while, ya know Good luck and email me if you would like,, ~ Jan

Hi my name is Mary. My sugery was Jan. 19th so far I have lost 35lbs. I weight 315lbs. on the 16th and it will be two weeks tomorrow. I'm doing pretty good. Walking around the house because it has been so cold out. I'm afried to get sick. My husband took me out shopping over the weekend. I did good walking did'nt hurt to much. Except when he would hit a pot hole. Please watch for pot hole I would tell him. I go to see my Dr. this thursday. So I will see how much then. The only place my husband see a differents is my boobs. I told him they would be the first to go. He hates that part,(I don't). My kids all teens say they see it every where. Me I don't see a different yet. Except maybe my boobs. I like that cheaper bra's. Well hope you are felling better too. They say it gets better every day. Can't wait till summer......
