Based on my weight according to my scales at home I have lost 15 lbs since my surgery in auguast 26.  I weighed in at 260 at home and as of yesterday it read 245.  I  am doing really well, finally getting some energy back driving and even went on a short motorcycle ride this morning, a sa pasanger of course.  Don't get me wrong, I am still adjusting to my new tummy and the medication/vitamin regimen but it is slowley falling into place.  The biggest problems I am facing are as follows, trying to eat the amounts listed for this stage (ie 1/2 cp oatmeal,1/4 cp yogurt for breakfast) at one setting and getting everything crushed and mixed with food so the meds/vitamins dont overpower the taste of food.  Have been taken off diabetes meds and had anxiety meds changed, have used pain meds 3 times since coming home, not bad.

Take care every one and thank you all for all of the support.  Hugs

Lori

Whoop, whoop, one med gone!  Happy to hear you are doing well Lori. 

When it come to the meds,the  vitamins are pretty good but I gag on the other stuff. I'm crushing like they told me. It doesn't mix well with anything I have tried yet. Let me know if you find something.

Loser's visualize the penalties of failure. Winners visualize the rewards of success.
