Topic: My wow moment

Hey ya'll. So just wanted to share my wow moment. I got out of the shower this morning dried off then walked out the bathroom. I had to walk back in to take a double look. I had the towel completely wrapped around me with no gap. Now to some people that might not be big but for me it was like wow. I had to do a happy dance

I can't believe i can get a towel around me way before i even thought about wls thats a goal i always had was to fit the towel. This tool is da bomb

Things are inching along very slowly for me.  I'm going to stay positive though!  It's not a race with anyone and I'm donig this for me and my health... not to be skinny! ha ha

Don't waste time on regret!  Grab what you've got now and don't waste a minute of your new life. It is so totally awesome to see how positive everyone's outlooks have become since surgery. Hard to believe that just a few short months ago many of us were miserable!!!

Keep up that great work!  I'm here cheering for you!

Thnks Julie. I feel great. My only regret is that I did not do this earlier. For some reason I thought that it was too extreme. It took my health getting worse before I made the decision to do it. What a shame. I could have had a lot more years of feeling good. But, I did it now and I will enjoy the years to come. Thank you by the way. How are things with you?

wow. I don't know much about stalls with the band. If you were rny I would say up your protein and water. Have you tried any protein drinks? I use EAS Myoplex chocolate fudge. It has 42 gms of protein and I have it for breakfast. It has 300 calories. It fills me up through out the morning because I can't drink it all at once. It has calories enough so that I don't go into starvation mode and the protein is great if you are working out. If that isn't your idea of a feasible breakfast, maybe you should post on the lap band forum and see if any one with experience can help you. Good luck.
I also had an appt with Dr Miles next Thursday but I had to reschedule. I am now going in on July 2nd. It would have been funny if I had meet you there.
