UPDATE

I had my surgery on Mar 3 and am finally back to work. I am now on the losing side and very much enjoying it. Every thing went well and I feel great. I went for my check up on 04/12 and already down 45 lbs. WOW I was shocked. The only thing I need to do is try and eat more meat. I have a hard time with a lot of meats. Ground up really fine hamburger is all I can really tolerate easily. I do have some canned tuna, chicken and ham to make which I need to do to see how they do. I don't have trouble as far as swallowing it but sometimes I feel like it gets stuck and my chest will hurt until it goes down. The doc told me I could quit the protien drinks if I can eat meat at least twice a day so I am working on it, otherwise he may have to go in with a scope and stretch my opening. Dont want that. Any how thanks to all who sent their well wishes and good luck everyone on this wonderful journey. Love Patty

Morning Patty WELCOME to the losing side! Congrats on your weight loss, bet you are feeling better already. Remember chew chew chew. Some have trouble with chicken (I haven't) I wonder if it's the skin they have trouble with? Keep up the good work & keep us posted Hugs Carolyn
