Yes, I am singing Happy Re-birhtday to myself....lol!!!!! ...Yes I am crazy but I like me anyway Thanks so much for all of your replies on the sizes we are now. I noticed a strange thing....some of us weighed more than others and alot of you lost more than me but we have all pretty much at this point landed at about the same size! I hope that maybe I don't lose anymore because I think I am where I should be. It would be nice to lose about another 8 lbs but I am happy where I am now. I was talking with my husband lost night and he finally remembered that today was my year anniversary. We talked about how rough it was in the beginning with the foods I had to eat for the first 8 weeks and the infection that I got while in the hospital...not to mention how sick I was for the first serveral hours after waking up after surgery. I told him that to me it was all worth it and I WOULD do it again if I had to! Since I had this surgery I have changed the way I fix dinner at nights when I am not working late. My husband has managed to drop about 25 lbs this year. I think as long as I continue to cook the way I do he will continue to lose. One very important food that we have cut out is ice cream! Every night since we have been together I would buy a gallon of ice cream and we would pretty much eat it in a weeks time sometimes a gallon and a half. We had switched over to fat free/sugar free ice cream and then he discovered the goodness of frozen fruit bars. I myself have found a new product at our store...it is Soy Dream ice cream sandwiches. They are about half the size of regular ice sandwiches and really taste good!!! I was shocked when I bought them and tried them. My husband even liked them and he has always turned his nose up at anything that has soy in it! Is anyone having more trouble with constipation??? I found it to be more of a problem here lately and bought a really good overnight relief pill called Perdiem. It has a natural vegetable ingredient...so the label on the front says but the ingredients on the back list everything but a vegetable....lol. After I go a few days of no luck in the bathroom I take two pills before bed. I get up the next morning and after going to the bathroom a few times I feel good as new and I have alot of energy! It doesn't cramp my stomach any all though I know everyone is different. I gave 2 pills to my dad and he got cramps and only went to the bathroom one time he said. Maybe since our systems have been altered we have different results? Well, there is a few products that I have found and tried and liked. I thought I would share them with you all. HAPPY RE-BIRTHDAY TO ALL OF US IN OCTOBER!!!! We have came a long way in this year and the results for all of us is mind blowing! I think we have done a wonderful job and we look fabulous!!!! Keep up the good work October babies!!!! Lisa S.
