Two Months Out

Hi  Everyone!

Sorry I haven't posted in a long time, most of you have probably forgotten me. But, I wanted to update you on my progress.

Even though I feel like it has been slow, I am two months out and have lost 35 post-op. I am pleased and know everyone is different. I have had no problems, complications, etc. So, I have been blessed.

If I had to do over, I would again in a heart beat! I feel great and can eat pretty much anything I want. Wanting is the key word. I have not strayed into high calorie foods and am proud of that! I know this is going to be a lifelong challenge, and after having surgery, I don't want to blow it!

I encourage anyone to do this, as long as you realize it is a daily commitment. It is just a tool as Dr. Kane told me.

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Thanks,

Georgianna

Thanks! I just ate a turkey burger and did fine. It takes a lot of chewing, but tasted so good!
I keep trying new things. Salmon cake did not go down very well - maybe not enough chewing.

Any more ideas?

Dear Georgianna:
Thank you so much for the update, I was wondering about you.

35 pounds in 2 months is awesome!  Keep up the great work and you are correct....it IS a lifetime commitment to good health.  Congratulations!

Congratulations Georgianna.  I haven't had my surgery yet,  but your progress sounds excellent to me.  We didn't gain our weight overnight, that's for sure.  Keep up your good work and commitment to your health.  You sure are an inspiration to me!

Thanks, Stephanie. As an RD, you know all about it. I absolutely wish I could have had mine years ago, but did not have the insurance in place. I don't know your situation, but I believe it is a great option. I am so happy.

How soon will you be having yours? write back and tell me your story!
