I have all the time in the world, which is a good thing. Now I can walk out of my room and right into the workout room :)

I am doing great and so happy I did this surgery!

This is what 180 bucks and some free labor got me this weekend!

I got my home gym room back since my son and his g/f moved out!It is only a 10X11 room, but it works!
So I was in there cleaning the walls and floor and decided to give it a make over face lift... I painted the walls (a grayish green) and pulled up the carpet and had my son~in~law and his friend lay the new flooring. I am so happy with the way it turned out. I got all my equipment in there an there is room for me to do my Wii fit & EA Sports Active and have room for my yoga mat and ball. Here are the pic (and Jordan one of my Danes had to get in the pics)

   
 

I'm sorry but what is onederland.... I must sound sooo stuipd but I keep seeing this and have no clue as to waht it is let me know... so i can say congrats lol

I am just shy of 7 weeks, and feeling great!  I have lost 29 pounds since surgery, and 50 since starting a 6 month weight loss program with my Insurance Company.  I seem to be losing the inches in the last week.  A few co workers (from different departments) have made comments about me melting away.  I was VERY open about my surgery and program, so they are all aware of my journey.  Most are aware of my struggles, so they are a great support system for me.  I had a hard time eating my protein early on, but am getting better at it.  I am a slow steady loser, but I will take it.  No long stalls (thank goodness) for more than 4 days. 

Early Morning Snack - Cream of Wheat
Breakfast -Protein Drink (I drank a Click for the first time today, they are the bomb)
Mid Morning Snack - LF Cheese/Ham
Lunch - egg salad, or chicken salad with Miracle Whip no mayo
Afternoon Snack - LF Cheese/Ham
Dinner  - Chicken or fish, veggie if room

If anyone knows a better schedule, please feel free to help!  And as for the Click drink, it does have Caffeine, which I didn't realize until i was flying around today, but boy it tasted good, and not like a protein drink!

Our journey started with the first step!

You can only absorb 500 mg of calcium at a time and really should be getting around 2,000 mg a day. Also you should be taking 2 multi vite's a day. Are you taking a iron supplement?
There is a very knowledgeable lady (Andrea) on OH who can tell you exactly what you are supposed to be taking.Maybe post  this ? on the RNY forum and she will answer.
