HI EVERYONE!

Sorry, I just got to a computer, ours at home got hit with a storm and we havent had the money yet to replace it. Anywase I am home got home on Thursday and I have been trying to do all my protein but am getting sick of it. It seems like that is all I drink through the day. I'm scared I am taking to big of sips. My pain has stopped, since I finally went to the bathroom. (tmi!). I walked to my mother in-laws house today to email and it is 1 and 1/2 miles from my house it was cold but I had to do it. Thank you Heather for letting everyone know how I was doing and thank you everyone who thought of me, you guys are great!!! I am a loser now! I dont feel like I have lost any weight,actuallly my stomach looks bigger than what it was before I went to surgery. I still have my drains in, that kinda bummers,because I am afraid they will come out while I am at home, but I go see the doctor tomorrow so we will see. well thank you everyone and now I can come to the exchanges to meet everyone!

Hello Tracey, welcome to the losing side. Don't worry the weight will come off. Give it one week and then weight your self maybe even 2. Since I was alot lower weight then most on this siight I didn't lose as much as fast as others. I only lost 19 pounds in 3 weeks. So belive me you will lose and in no time. Just remember to get your fluids in, your body won't loss if you don't ok. Take care. Lisa B

hi loser....we all l ose diff than the other person, so do not compare yours to anyone else that may have lost 100 pounds in 2 days...sure did not happen for me...lol... those drains are indeed about the worst of the surgery, one reason i have been dragging my feet on plastics, OUCH those drains look way to painful for me to have...

Once that stupid drain comes out you will feel 90% better... mile and half was a nice brisk walk...hope you let people know you're out... My sister lives down around big lots. in Lebonon.. I was just there last Wed... I felt like I was loosin slow... but next time I turned around I was down 3 sizes.. its freaky but it DOES come off... Love and wishes Linda

I'm thankful that I never had to have those drains .... everything like that was gone upon my dismissal from the hospital! ...must be the difference in doctors? ....
