WooHoo! That's awesome!

congrats! I am at 2 weeks yesterday, and go to see the Doc today. You are doing great!

Thank you so much ladies!  I will send her your well wishes!!!!

I  had  gall bladder out   before surgery and it was not  as hard as   the  rny  but  still major surgery so you will have to take it easy.

I have my hernia repair on the   16 with  dr  haung  and even that is major surgery and i cant do any lifting for  six weeks.  maybe  with any luck he will let me go back to zumba in a couple of weeks but we will see.  I will do what he tells me.

take care
you are doing great

I know it sounds like a weird thing to celebrate, but I started with a BMI of almost 80, so I have gone from Super Super Morbidly Obese to Super Morbidly Obese down to "just" Morbidly Obese -- it's a start, right?

The only concerns right now that I have is that it sure seems like I can eat more than I did at first, but a lot of that may be my choice of foods. I confess that I am drinking 2/3 of my protein in favor of eating something I want to eat, like fresh raspberries or strawberries. I have been making a crock pot chicken dish with black beans and corn and I would prefer to eat the beans and corn to the chicken, yet it is the best I can come up with for meat.

I seem to tolerate small amounts of things like shrimp, lobster, salmon, beef . . . but not really pork yet.

I still usually only eat solid food twice a day, sometimes three, but two is more common. I am having an easier time getting the fluid in, so I don't always count anymore.

So all in all, things are going well :)
