1) Eaten chips? 2 Tortilla chips for eating my crab dip 2) Tried soda? Diet coke over ice, I craved, I drank, I'm over it now. 3) Tried something with sugar? No way Jose - I dump on natural sugars that are too high even - found this out with a banana (had to get my potassium up) 4) Eaten Popcorn? No, I never really cared for it that much.... 5) Chewed Gum? Nope, never cared for that either. 6) Skipped a meal? I am bad about missing breakfast because I wake up late. I try and eat yogurt at my desk everyday, but sometimes I am just not hungry. 7) Not exercized for a whole week straight? During the "dark times" when I had the flu and an ulcer. Put me on my a** for 3 weeks. 8) Eaten your carbs and no protein for a meal? see "dark times" above - it was all about the broth. 9) Had an alcoholic beverage? Nope, but at 6 months I will try a little something. 10) Eaten out at a restaurant? Yes, and I usually get soup or something soft. I cannot chew meat, my poor jaw gets sore and I am a total freik about swallowing a chunk. I never have and I am too scared to.

Thanks....I guess I am like so many others on here. I just couldn't see it. Clothes were falling off me and I knew I lost a little. Yeah 50lbs a little. It took me to look at the before and after right beside each other to see what others are seeing.

How do you feel? I feel fabulous now, lot's of energy! Are you still battling with nausea? No, not since doc put me on prilosec and reglan. Stopped the reglan weeks ago and just take my prilosec. No more tummy problems at all. Any other problems... Constipation. That is the only one... What does your diet consist of? Mostly cheese, yogurt, nuts, and chicken + veggies when I have room. I drink lots of protein and it keeps me feeling full a lot. Do you smoke? No. My surgeon strictly forbids it and will not give us the operation if we are smoking. He says why solve the #2 cause of preventable death while you are still participating in the #1 cause?

I have read how people feet are shrinking. I said mine aren't. That is unitl this morning. When it rains I have to wade through water to get to the car. So I have a pair of flats that I use only for this. I walked out of them 3 times today. The first time I almost fell. You know I stood frozen in fear. DO NOT WANT TO brake my hip again. So now I am walking slow and I kept walking out of them. My feet did shrink but I have been so busy watching my boobs shrink I never thought to look at my feet. And I can see them now

WOW! You look AMAZING!!! Congratulations on your hard work too!! Blessings~
