Week 1 is DONE!!!

I made it through week one!!! I'm still having problems with extreme weakness but I moved myself to full liquids today (only a day early) I got in 2 oz of s.f. pudding and I'm feeling a little better. I'm sure my body was just asking for more!!! I've lost 14 lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely incredible!!!!!!!!! Laurie 262/248/135

That is so cool. I am so scared..............tomorrow I'm having mine. Im so scared that I have already told my surgen never mind that I've changed my mind. Then of course he has talked me into it again. HELP! It's just that I want to make sure this is the absolutly the last resort. Its awsome that you lost that weight. It must feel great!! Janna

Janna you will be fine, And NO its not the last resort. If you can workout and eat healthy for the rest of your life then you will be able to lose the weight and its not the last resort. BUt if your like me, who dieted and workout and then stoped after 4 month and gained the weight back plus some, then Yes! It is the last resort. I'm not going to sugar coat it and say that its easy,Noway its going to be hard for aleast the first 3 weeks or for some people MORE! But in the long run its alllll worth IT! WE all get second thoughts even after surgery,like I did, I said to myself "why did I let this happen" but you know what, I am so much better and happier today then before surgery. I still have moments dont get me wrong,But I also had moments before surgery. Your not able to eat the same as before and you're not going to be able to eat your troubles away like WE THOUGHT WE DID in the past,but we will get use to it and we will find other ways to comfort us and deal with whatever troubles us. So my friend once again YOU WILL BE FINE. And you have all of us here for you for support or whatever you need. Best wishes on what you decide. xoxoxoxo Rosie
