Yesterday morning i was feeling great and decided to wake up and brew some coffee and make breakfast for my BF. i scrambled some eggs (which i have done many times and had no problem with). i did somethign wrong this time and wound up getting sick sick sick. luckily i had a dose or two of Phenegran left and after an hour or so of barf and foam, i took it and promptly fell asleep until 3:30. sigh.

I have my EGD procedure to stretch out my Stricture at UNCH on Feb 5th. i am keeping my fingers crossed that after that i can start eating more than an ounce at a time and my food tolerance starts becoming more consistent. am i setting my expectations too high? I miss having energy.

Another random thing... this weekend i met and surpassed my 100lbs lost mark and didn't even know it! my pre-surgery diet weight was 333, i was 306 at surgery date, and as of today i am 231. that.... amazes me! 

here i am 3 days before surgery with my mom: http://www.flickr.com/photos/91801371@N00/2897660396/

KarlaAnne,

It's time to change your Avatar my dear! Wow!! You look absolutely lovely. Congratulations on your phenominal metamorphosis. I'm so sorry that you are struggling and hope that you will get relief soon. I found that scrambled eggs were often problematic for me during the first few months.

Wishing you continued success,

Karla,
OMG you do not look the same as when I first met you.
You look great.
Is Dr. Farrel going to do the proceedure?
I think I may have a stricture but I dont think it is bad enough to have it stretched plus if I had it stretched I would worry it would be an open invitation to consume more.
Other than that I am doing great.
Thxs for sharing your pics I am sure your mom is very proud of you.

It is never too late to be what you might have been.?

Karla!!!! What a difference in 3 months!  You go Girl!!!!! Congrats on the new healthier you!  Sometimes I think I should have gone with RNY, but I am plugging along with the LapBand instead!  Slowly but surely 1 lb at a time!  LOL
