Topic: RE: hundredland!!
Isn't it the grandest feeling??? I started at 240 (highest ever was 255) and I am at 195 at three months out.
Last time I saw under 200 I was in college and not married. That was over 25 years ago........

Topic: RE: shoe size changes?
Yes, shoe sizes will change. My Sister-in-law manages a very high end shoe store and has worked in the industry for twenty years. She says the rule of thumb is 1/2 size for every thirty pounds. The size may be a combination of length and width. So don't buy alot of shoes along the way.
I already have some wides that I can't keep on my feet. All of those shoe purchases that were good on the perfect day of the month seem to fit fine now. I am down 45 pounds at three months post op.

You have made great progress...Congratulations, Dori! 
Have you talked to your doctor about the fact that you can't tolerate much solid food yet? I have just found in the last week that I can eat more meats if I really take time to eat and chew a lot. Last night I had about a 4 oz boneless pork chop with about 5 spears of asparagus, and I really wanted to eat them so I took it so s-l-o-w-l-y that I was sitting there a full 45 minutes eating. Everything went really well. Have you tried this kind of pace? It seems artificial, but it really works! Good luck!
