You look great! So glad to see success stories. Slowly but surely! I am 2 days post op and feeling good just funny little feelings in my tummy as the liquids go down. Stomach still has some swelling to it. Protein is slowly going down. Jello and chicken broth are 2 favourites right now. Again, good for you! Keep up the good work!

Topic: One Year Surgiversary - 82 lbs down

Well it's been a whole year and what a difference it has made to my physical and emotional well being.  I still have a way to go...I need to loose another 20lbs to meet the nutritionists goal and another 45 to meet my personal goal.  Haven't lost anything in the last 4 months but have lost a clothing size so things are shifting in flight! LOL  Size 24 and 3-4 XL on the left and today Size 16 and XL on the right.  Here are the photos.

Oh gosh Sondra....I hope you're better soon, but I am glad you are back at the ER if you're not feeling good.  Nothing worse than waiting too long to get help.

As a patient of the MB Bariatric program you should be getting emails inviting you to these sessions but maybe b/c you were done so long ago, you weren't on the list.  You will need to call the Vic and ask for the Bariatric Program and Amara will be able to sign you up for the session if you want to come, apparently there is limited space, but I think this is a good one for the vets, I am hoping they are going to talk about what the criteria is to be eligible for the pannectomy in MB and how much the costs are for other things.

are either of you ladies going to the Plastics info session on June 19th?  I have rearranged my appts so I can attend this (and I have a referal to plastics from Dr. Hardy on the 20th)  Apparently there is a coffee session after, you guys should try and make it on the 19th.... even if it's just for the coffee session.  The info session is at the Vic from 6-7 so just after that but I don't know where yet....... I am totally needing plastics
