Post Op--2 weeks plus 2 days (November 20th)

All is going well, haven't lost 100lbs yet but I'm sure, given the time, I'll will meet my goal and then some. Found the key, at least one of them, to success -- WATER/FLUIDS. Drink lots of it. I had been feeling somewhat slow, down and out and not as great as the first week. I looked back to the first week and the BIG difference, aside from adding a little bulk to my diet, I wasn't drinking as much water as before. You'd be surprized how much better you feel when your body is hydrated!! 2wks plus 2 days and I feel great. No regrets at all, I am loosing weight and looking alot better. Increasing my water intake made a big difference. Counting my blessings and wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.

Thanks for the important news, I am still waiting for my lap band surgery date, but I am lurking hoping to get as much info before hand as I can. Can I ask, what are you using for your protien suppliment? I'm not sure which is best, a shake or the bullets. How is your pain level after surgery, I'm hoping to be back to work in one week. Any tips or new info would be welcomed gladly. Sounds like your doing very well, keep up the good work, have a wonderful holiday season! Cathy

i prefer bullets, shakes are disgusto!

Ralph, I really want to second that hydration idea. You will do so much better if you keep pouring tha****er down. It is so good to hear that all is going well for you. Keep up the grat work. John
