So I did the measurement thing today and it's only a difference of 6 inches, that doesn't seem like much to me but who knows.  I lost 3 from my hips, 2 from my waist and 1 from my bicep (or bat wing!).  I know other parts look different but I didn't start out measuring my ankles so I don't really know.  I kind of feel like the weight is coming off so slowly but I bet if I got better at exercising daily it would move faster.  I'm going to write exercise times into my calendar and treat it like an unbreakable appointment and see if that helps.  I suppose all the gardening must count for something???  I got my new bike but haven't ridden it yet other than up my road a little.  I need a kick in the fanny to make the most of my tool!

Kick away...

The hormones get raging  right after  surgery and i had the same thing happen but now it has leveled out.   Mention it to the dietician or toder if it keeps on.   It was a pain in the but.  take care

I went through menopause several years ago.  But since surgery I've had days when if I didn't know it was impossible I'd of sworn I was going through PMS and then the last 2 days I've had hot flashes just like when I went through menopause!

What the heck is going on?

Yeah, peeing right after is a real adventure!
Glad to hear you're home!

Hey! I just got home, whew, talk about an interesting stay at the hospital lol. Everything went well, the doctor was glad I had lost weight (turned out I lost 20lbs from my consult with him a month ago so he was pleased), and I was able to have it done laproscoptically but he said my "fat distribution" made it challenging but he was able to do it all. I almost didn't get to come home today because I was having problems passing urine, but I was finally able to go thank god lol. I'm sipping on my water and trying to get use to the funny sensations when it hits my stomach. Not much pain at all, and I was told to just take some Tylenol if it hurts. Gonna go take a nap, just wanted to update you
